Sending Flowers

I think Proflowers does come in a box, but I've never received them, only sent. I've sent Proflowers countless times and have always had rave reviews. If you enter any one of the promotion codes (rome is what I've always used) in the top-right, you get a free vase. I can't recommend them highly enough. I've sent FTD before and had ups and downs -- a few times for my mother, the order wasn't delivered on time.

 

I like to send pajamagrams....crotchless pajamagrams.

Off topic...what's so great about FireFox?

 

Why that? Just Get her an HugEGram

If you are sending flowers to somebody at home, Proflowers have great flowers, and good deals. I highly recommend them.

If you are sending flowers to someone at work or in a hospital, you should probably stick with someone like FTD that will send an actual flower arrangement.

I wouldn't want my wife to have to assemble her arrangement at work, it would kind of be a pain. Also, if someone is in the hospital, about the last thing anyone wants or can do is put together in arrangement. But when the giant arrangement shows up in a vase with balloons, it makes all the other ladies in the office jelous.

I think FTD.com and 800flowers.com are the two biggies. Google for coupon codes/specials. Also, for whatever reason, if you are a reward point or miles person, flower places usually have big time bonus points through AMEX or your airline store.

Call Sharpstown Florist (59 South at Beechnut - or is it Gessner? I forget). They're REALLY GOOD. I've sent Mrs. SwoLy and both my daughters flowers from there for birthdays, Valentine's Day, and other occasions. They've never failed me and when I've asked them to look up my info, they had it from the time before. I also have asked for "something extra" for being a regular customer and they said "Oh, yeah, a couple balloons?". Nice stuff.

 

i used one eight hundred flowers, delivered by a local florist, the recipient enjoyed it

 

Pro Flowers. I've used them before, they have great flowers and typically have really good deals around holidays.

There are many discounts, just google for one. I know many radio talk shows have proflower discount keywords that you type onto proflowers.com to get special rates.

 

Lower case P FAIL.

 

Lexis Florist.... the best in the city. Their roses are absolutely the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen.
