Shopping Tips for Flower.com: Coupon/Promo Codes, Sales and Free Shipping

Flower.com




What is Flower.com Flower.com is a floral network based in Los Angeles, CA. THEY ARE NOT A FLORIST! They coordinate floral deliveries all over the United States and much of the rest of the world. In fact, the main two locations you can't send flowers to are Post Office Box Addresses and APO/FPO addresses. As such, you won't pay any tax on your order UNLESS IT IS SHIPPING TO CALIFORNIA.

Flower.com
What does Flower.com sell? Flowers, of course! More than that that though, you can also purchase gift baskets containing spa products, gourmet foods and regional cuisines, cookies, cakes, balloons, teddy bears and cakes at flower.com. The various flowers are fulfilled by subscribing florists in flower.com's network. Gift baskets will be sent in the post.

Flower.com Shipping Deliveries from Flower.com start at $9.99 and depend upon whether or not expedited delivery is required, the type of product and other factors. Flower.com prides itself on paying great attention to funeral flowers. They liaise with funeral homes regarding viewing information and delivery times and will even look up the exact address of the funeral home and / or zip code if you are unable to provide it. Be sure to specify if this is the purpose of your flower order: also if it is a birthday or anniversary delivery as it was noted that they do show special attention towards birthday and anniversary floral orders. Flower.com DOES offer Sunday delivery: this is not a common thing in the floral delivery world! Flower.com operates a floral network that also allows them to deliver flowers to most destinations worldwide. In fact, the only destinations explicitly stated on flower.com they they CANNOT deliver to are Post Office Box Addresses and APO / FPO addresses.

A few more questions..

Honestly, Centsible has a few more questions on Flower.com. For example, what exactly IS their floral network? Are they in collaboration with any other major florists? What is the delivery schedule and price list for items such as gift baskets? We've sent an email to Flower.com and will be posting our findings at our main site, Centsible.net.
