$$$ VALENTINE'S DAY RED ALERT $$$

Valentine's Day Public Service Announcement!!!!

I would like to begin by saying this is not an ad,it is truly a public service announcement!!!

MY ADVICE... BUY LOCAL!!!

Almost all of us have heard or seen the commercials on the great “Valentine’s Day specials” that are offered buy some unnamed online flower sites (not florist)….well…let me shed some light on these specials for you.
First I went online to order this “SPEACIAL” and this is what I see;

Item Description:
12 red roses(a misleading picture of a bouquet already in full bloom….FYI roses should not be sold in full bloom …they want last long)
3 stems baby's breath (wow 3 stems….and no filler)
Stands approximately 16" tall (these are SHORT not long stem roses)
Free vase (the vase is truly a deal)

AND NOW THE COMPLETE “SPEACIAL” PRICE

12 Red Roses: $19.99
Glass Ginger: Free!
Standard Express Delivery: $12.99
Guaranteed Feb. 12 Delivery: $4.99
Care & Handling: $2.99

________________________________________
TOTAL: $45.78

News flash people this is no “special” and to prove it I goggled local Florist (yes florist) and I called the first ten results and compared prices of short stem and long stem bouquets, with and without delivery charges. I want bore you with the details of all my research but I will highlight the Florist that gets my seal of approval.
A local shop called “A COUNTRY ROSE FLORIST & GIFTS" had the best specials.
