Flowers/Fruit Order?

Where do you order from or where have you received good orders from for flower or fruit? My best friend just moved away and I wanted to order something for her birthday but... I can't believe these insane prices! & then to not even know if they're gonna look nice!

I just tried to order on teleflora and was almost done when they tried to charge me a $15.99 service fee... for what?! Apparantly "wire fees, etc." according to the rep I chatted with. What the eff?! Chat Icon

Re: Flowers/Fruit Order?

Honestly the Valentine's Day roses I got from Pro Flowers are still amazing and perfect and it's over a week later.
That is always the freshest to me.
But it doesn't come in a pretty arrangement- you have to take them out and put them in a vase, add water/food, arrange them.

But they always last way longer than the florists

I like Shari'd Berries or Edible arrangements.

You can send something like juniors cheesecake. I've done that before. There are a few places that mail cakes or cupcake arrangements. I forget the names. Check Ebates!!

Or there is a place that does cupcakes in a jar- those look amazing too!

I really like FairyTale Brownies.

But I would also try Etsy. I sent a friend chocolate chip cookie shot glasses (for milk) last year and they were awesome.

I have also sent a Chicago Deep Dish Pizza from Goldbelly, but they can be pricy when no coupon code out there.

I use 800 flowers mainly because with shoprunner you get free shipping
But, about 2 weeks ago, they had a groupon available which wouldnt allow me to use shoprunner so I ended up signing up for their passport program. For $19.99 it gives free shipping for a year on ALL of their brands - shipping the arrangement I wanted was going to cost $19.98 so it was worth it for me. The two last arrangements I sent looked great, and my husband just sent one that is also in good shape

Bouqs.com has the nicest flowers, unique arrangements (not boring like some others) and my Vday flowers are still going strong!

I also like Wolfermans for food gift baskets (more pastries, muffins, breads type of stuff)
