How often do you buy flowers?

I ask because trader Joe's has a nice selection and felt like splurging . Yet I don't want them as a gift, lol.

Re: Flowers every week

Never.
But if you like them and feel like treating yourself, go for it!

Sometimes little things like that can really make your week better or make you smile

Re: Flowers every week

When I had my own place, I bought flowers every week during my supermarket trip. I’d put them in the living room and some in a small vase in my bedroom.

I couldn’t tell you why I don’t do it anymore. It was nice to see them every day.

I think I’ll be buying flowers at ShopRite tmrw.

Re: Flowers every week

Never.

I get them for Valentine's Day, Mother's Day (sometimes a plant), my Birthday, and my Anniversary.

I did a favor for a neighbor and she brought me flowers as a thank you. That was really nice and very unexpected.

I also put out flowers when I host holidays like Thanksgiving, but usually a sibling will bring those.

Traders had the best flowers at such a reasonable price!! Totally worth it!!! I don’t too often but when I do It’s a nice treat that lasts a decent amount of time

Re: Flowers every week

My BF brings me flowers twice- three times a week. It stresses me out because I don’t have enough vases.

Every now and then I pick up flowers while I’m grocery shopping. The flowers usually last me 2 weeks.

Same. I only go there once a month but I always pick up a bouquet for myself when I’m there.

DH goes through phases. Sometimes it's every week, then I won't see any for a month or more. He usually gets them at Trader Joe's or Costco.

Flowers every week

I shop at Trader Joes every week and I always buy flowers. I love the fresh flowers, and it makes me feel good.

As pretty as fresh flowers are they take up space and just one more thing for me to clean. My husband buys them from time to time but about it.

Re: Flowers every week

I ALWAYS buy some when I go to TJ's. They're so cheap and they're worth it to me.. plus I've had them live for two-three weeks. I never buy the ones more than $7... but they are so fresh and cheap. Peony season is coming up and theirs are SOOOO beautiful! I'm excited!

Re: Flowers every week

Haven't bought myself flowers in a long time.
DH rarely buys me flowers.
I love carnations. They come in such pretty colors, I think they are girly because of the ruffled petals and they last a really long time.

Never I actually tell DH not to buy me flowers bc I'd rather he use the money toward something else, like our occasional date night.

Re: Flowers every week

I buy flowers every week during my food shopping trip for the dining room and our bedroom. DH will send me them for holidays, and I usually order some when I host.

I always say I’m not a flower person, and I honestly hate when my DH sends them to me bc $80 for flowers makes me gag, but I truly love the cheap roses I get at the grocery store, they make me happy!

Re: Flowers every week

DH surprises me with flowers from time to time.

Once in awhile I’ll pick them up for myself at the supermarket but honestly I’d rather spend the $10 or whatever on beer.

I've never bought flowers for myself, but in the Spring and Summer I like to cut flowers from the various plants and bushes we have in our yard and put them in a vase on our table.

I never buy them but my friend buys herself fresh flowers every week with her groceries. She was visiting me and made me do it too and I really liked it. There's something nice about fresh flowers in the house.

Haha. It is kind of laughable at this point. And again, I got another bunch this evening. I love it— don’t get me wrong!

But to answer the OP, I do like to buy myself flowers, but now my problem is too many flowers.

They have flower fields here and you pick your own flowers. You then deposit money, based on the honor system, after how many you picked. It depends on the season, but there are many flowers to pick around the corner from me.

In the spring/summertime, I buy them almost weekly. In the fall/winter, almost never! Treat yourself!

Re: Flowers every week

I haven't bought flowers in probably 10 months and honestly, my husband never buys me flowers. I love them and wish he would buy them for me once in a while!

I love flowers. I buy them every time I go to the farmers market or Trader Joe's - so pretty much every week.

DH buys me them from time to time as well.
