florists = thieves
 

Well not really, just a little pissed after blowing money on what I don't even consider "lots of flowers"...eh

The margins must be outstanding in that business :2 cents:

Ya, cuz a $7 shot from a $35 dollar bottle of booze seems fair too.

At least with alcohol your inventory does not rot in a matter of days.

That generaly applies to clubs and such, and while pushing it, they have alot more expenses ;)

Chicks still dig getting flowers

They do?

Awww thank you Rui... I really love these three dandilions. I don't think it was a ripoff :winkwink:

Yes they do...next time you go to one pay atenttion to everything that surrounds you ;)

RRRED - I will take note of that comment, trust me :winkwink:

True true...

I do not go to clubs really. It was reason I even asked. The very few clubs around here though do not have much. I think one occassionally has a live DJ. None do any real advertising. So only thing I ever really considered was space rent, waitress's, bouncer, utilities, alcohol, and such.

Fuck I alwys wondered why I see rich Florist owners driving around in their fancy cars, and those poor ass club owners in their pintos.

Aren't you in a wheelchair anyways ? would be kinda hard to go in theses places ... very crowded.

Yes I am, and that is one of the reasons I do not go. The crowds themselves do not bother me so much as people stumbling over me which causes me to smell like I bathed in assorted alcohols very quickly. Then also trying to get out or around much sucks balls. So if I do go it is best to remain stationary in one place.

Though on the plus side women get wierd and ask you shit you never would expect, they also want rides and see your lap as a vacant seat.

My parents are florists and it's hard these days with all the grocery super stores selling roses at 10 bucks a dozen (as an example), even though the quality of their expensive flowers is superior, it's been harder for them lately, they definately aren't making the same money they were 10 years ago.

Wholesale on the good flowers isn't cheap, either, the markup isn't a huge as you'd think.

you must be a bit dense...

who do you think has the biggest volume?


Now tell me you work as a florist don't you? :1orglaugh

You caught me, you super sleuth you...

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh good point!

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I'm sick of paying what i consider "stupid money" for a bunch of dumb ass flowers that don't last a few days...

I guess that makes 2 of us...but its for a good cause :thumbsup

hehe as i read this there was a scam being shown on tv of a NJ company
that bought thousands and thousands of ads in the yellow pages (for each city)

FLORISTS OF ANTIGUA etc etc with their phone number
customers were calling the city flower shops with complains of shitty ass flowers beign delivered, the florists was like hrmph, after investigating
they realized they never sold these poeple flowers the place in NJ did

Depending on who you buy them from.

not here

but in the US it sucks big time yes, 6 long stemmend plastic vase 80 or so, like 5000% profit I guess

Oh well if shes worth it :winkwink:
