Bad news, need to send flowers to a relative

basmic

Just found out some dreadful news about a relative of mine - I won't say what, out of respect and decency.

Does anybody know a reasonably priced online store who can deliver flowers ideally tomorrow (if I order tomorrow morning or tonight)? Looking to spend £10-20 for a decent boquet.

if you can get hold of a local florist they'll probably be more likely to be able to deliver tomorrow and make something within your budget too

Definitely don't use Next flowers - I had some delivered to my mum £40 and they were dead within two days! I always use my local florist now. what area are you in? Perhaps someone can recommend someone x

If I do flowers online I use Bunches or Flying Flowers, both are reasonably priced and do quick and free delivery, and recipients have always told me they've been lovely arrangements

Aldi, Bunches and Serenata Flowers are all within your budget and good, but won't get there tomorrow. Interflora is more expensive (same day delivery is £5.99) but reliable. I use them for last minute orders.

If the flowers need to be there tomorrow, try these for £28.98: http://www.interflora.co.uk/catalog/product.xml?product_id=2216666;category_id=4

If they can wait til Thursday, £18.99: http://www.bunches.co.uk/plants/peace-lily.php

Or, £19.99: http://www.serenataflowers.com/product.asp?prod=86306&refpage=Category_Page-Products_from_%A39.99&position=pos8

If Friday isn't inappropriate, £15: http://www.aldiflowers.co.uk/Flowers/flowers-by-post/oriental-lilies.aspx

You sound upset yourself, so I'm sorry about your news.

I'd recommend Bunches, I've used them for years and everyone that's received their flowers have always commented on lovely they are and how long they last.

Hope you're okay.

I've used Bunches - never had any problems and reasonably priced I would say. I'm sorry for your bad news.

Have you considered whether a personal visit with flowers would be possible/more appreciated?

Google florists in their home town and then ring one up and pay over the phone with a card. They are more likely to deliver quickly and you cut out the "Interflora" charge.
