Sending flowers advice + bikini pic
 
I know this has been done in the past but a search turns up zippo on 2+2...

I gotta send flowers tomorrow for a bday. Any trip reports on whatever places 1800Flowers etc much appreciated...

It turned into a last minute thing, price isnt really an issue just want some decent quality stuff sent...I will be ordering tomorrow morning for a late afternoon delivery.

Please post any experiences or reccomendations...

Thanks in advance!

I've used 1800flowers for years. They've screwed up maybe once and rectified it. Wasn't a big deal, I sent two dozen roses once and she only got one. So the next day she got another after I contacted them.

Otherwise, they always come through for me. If anyone wants to use them at high traffic times, like Valentine's day or Mother's day, don't bother with the website ... unless they've upgraded it, go with the phone number.

1-800-Flowers is fine. Hot chick is finer.

I always just search for a florist on the town I am sending them too, and call up.

Yea thats what I originally thought to do. It's in the Bronx and I have no idea what is considered close in proximity in an area like that

Make sure you send them to er work, or someplace where her friends see her get them. That is KEY!

This is excellent advice! Listen to Gunny. I learned this a long time ago and I am considered a god within her workplace. Of course all the guys give me good natured [censored] for it because I'm crushing the curve.

Sending flowers is so damn easy and so unbelievably appreciated I don't understand why more don't do it.

Good call Gunny. She lives in the suburbs near me and teaches down in the Bronx. Thats also why I am sending them there instead of just giving em to her when I see her later that night. And if by co-workers you really meant 27 8 yr old kids then yea, she will have her word cut out for her dealing with the little rugrats. I will score some points with the geeks in her carpool. Thanks for the help, I went with ProFlowers.

Include a poem to show you love her. Something like:

On this your special day
My heart is beside you all the way
But if you don't give me some play
I'll probably go gay.

1 800 FLOWERS is fine. But they always have coupons, so find a code before you order.

Use a local florist - not one of these mass market hacks.

And don't send roses.

no, dont use 1800flowers. they are a service that charges to call a local florist where the flowers are to be delivered. the charge is around $10-15.

if the flowers are going out of town go to www.anywho.com for instance and put in the zip code you want the flowers delivered to and put in the biz type florist. call a local florist and tell them what you want. if it's a GF type set up tell them. a lot of places have websites and they can direct you to them and give you that set up.

either save $10-15 or put that back in the flowers and get an even nicer boquet.
