Are there any offers anywhere at the moment?

I need to book them for Friday. I usually use flyingflowers.com who are very reliable.

thanks

Not used too many recently but one I would never use again is Tescos. £30 worth of flowers dead within a few days. Non-existant customer service afterwards...

The cheapest way used to be to find a florist near where you want them delivered and phone them (or these days use their website if they have one!) That was always cheaper and often better than using Interflora from a florist local to you (and a florist told me that!) because you could talk directly to the company who would do the delivery and say what you wanted. I think also they would hope to pick up local business so would have an incentive for giving good service.

Sorry don't know about any national offers, but hope that may help!

I agree with Savvy Sue, it's really easy to get a phone number from yell.com, if you use interflora there is a fee which cuts down the money spent on flowers. Having said all that I have had 2 "postal" flower gifts this year one from Next (and I can't remember who the other was sorry) they both lasted for ages and in the case of the Next delivery the flowers arrived arranged in a vase which is handy when like me you can make a £30 boquet look like you picked them in the garden.:o

Hi Deleted_User,

Here's an older thread that may help:

HI

I've found thatrainbowflowers.com is quite good value for money as they often have 50% extra for the same price as normal bouquets and also i've been sent flowers by post-a-rose.com and they seem to be excellent quality and value.
Not used any recently but when I send flowers to my mun for her 80th birthday approx a year ago they were really excellent for delivery and quality.

Hi,

We had better luck than a previous poster with Tesco's, we've used them on a number of occasions to send smallish thank you bunches. We've also found vouchers on some of the cashback sites to use sometimes.

We also use https://www.yell.com to find local florists. We've found like other posters that it works out far better than Interflora. This is especially useful for when local knowledge is needed, e.g. sending funeral flowers/wreaths, and they know the local funeral directors and can double check delivery etc. Most take credit cards, but one extremely helpful florist said it was Ok for us to send a cheque which was unlikely to arrive until well after they'd sent the flowers, we needed to arrange funeral flowers at short notice just before everywhere closed for Christmas. There are some really nice people out there.

I used Interflora recently after getting an email about their new range. I ordered 20 pink roses for next day delivery for only £18 and they were beautiful!

I would never use tesco again as somebody has already pointed out they die really quickly. Never tried any of the other sites, but then that's 'cause I like to order something like flowers from a brand I know!
