    My wife recently won an award and I’d like to surprise her by sending some congratulatory flowers and/or chocolates to her workplace next week. I tried 1-800-flowers, but for some reason, they have the day I want to have them delivered blacked out as a delivery date (is Monday some kind of holiday?).

    Any other suggestions?

    Monday is Memorial day. Probably most will not deliver that day.

    Edit: wait.. which Monday... the one coming up or the one after (cause that's memorial day the 26th)

    Find the zip code of where she works. Google the zip and "florist". Get a local shop to deliver and avoid the 1-800-flowers fee. Flowers will still probably come from the same place.

    Most florists now charge a delivery fee, maybe not as much but sometimes it is the same or even more.

    Even if 1 8000 flowers delivered that day, you shouldn't use them! 99% of the time i've gotten flowers from them something has went wrong with the order. i.e. delivered valentines day NIGHT! + wrong vase :mad:

    thats pretty cool, pricey, but cool.

    I like how they have different occasions yet its all the same arrangements.
