So now I buy my own
Almost the same story here.

The bouquet and roses are both lovely, bought one of each for my girlfriend to cheer her up this morning. The checkout lady was cooing over the bouquet, I think she was going to call her OH on her break and demand he bought her one0 -
I dropped hints to my DH this morning when I had read this thread. Doubt I will get any though. _pale_0

I wonder if the bouquet is a huge as it looks on the advert?
For £5 you can justify treating yourself, especially with Mothering Sunday approaching.Do not allow the risk of failure to stop you trying!0 -

Awww I've had flowers off my OH every few weeks since we got together...He even got me some yesterday for looking after my mum as she's been sick this week. Ain't I lucky
But if he didn't I'd spoilt myself!!!!!!!!

Thanks to the OP
I think giving flowers is a lovely gift however, they do die pretty quickly and my mum also says that so its great that now i can buy her something else too like chocolates/ perfume etc which will last AND flowers!!bless her mums really do deserve it!

I phoned tesco this morning to ensure that had supply, to which I was informed they had, as it was a nice day I decided to take the two mile walk into town just to find they had sold out. An assistant I spoke to said people were buying them in bulk carrying armfulls to the till!!0

Then again, since I don't buy flowers do you think it might make her suspicious.You don't get medals for sitting in the trenches.0
