Sending flowers?!

Hi everyone
Please forgive me if this question has been answered elsewhere (I have done a search but couldn't find anything)

Can anyone tell me a good (and preferably cheap!) internet site for sending flowers? I would like to send some to my in-laws (long story!)

Thanks in advance for any tips!

    i used to work in a florist for a long time when at school etc. don;t know of any good internet sites, but rather than use interflora or teleflorist which are really expensive for what you get the best bet is to find a florist near to where they live and order by phone and pay on a card. https://www.yell.com should help you find somewhere.

    Hey Rach my thoughts exactly, why pay commission to a 3rd party, local florist will deliver more flowers for the same money you would pay a service company such as Inteflora.

    It is so easy with Yell.com, or check with a local friend or relative in the area for a more personal recommendation

    Hi there

    Have you tried 0800flowers.com? If you sign-up for their newsletter, they are always sending out special offers. Such as 10% off, money off next purchase, free chocs, free delivery etc. Their customer service is great as I have emailed them re a query and they sent me a £10 voucher as a gesture of goodwill.

    I have also had no complaints from the people I have sent the flowers to. I just wish someone would send me some :'(

    Liney :D
