Valentines Day Tips

With Valentines Day (or Singles Awareness Day) coming up quickly, I thought I'd share a few tips on how to save money on the outrageous prices of flowers:

Order your bouquets early.  It will help your local florist out who in turn will help you out by lowering the price.

Don't buy red roses.  Roses are not in season and are ridiculously expensive.  You will probably get better quality roses that will last longer if you buy bouquets in colors other than the traditional red.  Check out my blog tomorrow morning for a list of alternative flowers and there special romantic meanings.

Ask for domestically grown flowers.  Anything that needs to be imported will have a higher price.  This will mean that your roses will have a smaller head, but they will last longer and cost a lot less.

If you are in the Redwood City area on Valentines Day or the day before, come and order your flowers from Redwood City Florist.  I will be at the shop helping them out on the 13th and 14th!
