Apparently 30 roses is $200 AUD ($126 USD).
Florists making a killing today.
Grocery stores are usually a lot cheaper than a florist. I’m not sure if grocery stores have flowers in Australia, though. The flowers probably aren’t as “nice” or “big”, but the price difference is significant, and if your significant other cares about that sort of thing, you have bigger problems.
I got some at Costco today for $17 USD. I don’t know how many there are, but there are enough.
Same here in Australia, there are cheaper options at the supermarket but often the quality doesn’t look good. Bit of a hit and miss
I just buy the funeral grade flowers.
I’ll ask to see that section next time I go to a florist.
This is cheaper? What makes flowers “funeral” grade?
Older flowers towards the end of their lifespan they only need to last a day.
I see, thanks for the tid-bit!
Tbf, 30 does seem like a lot. Do you really need 30?
10 for $75.
I just got different flowers
If you are willing to go to a flower market like Flemington you can buy Colombian roses for 1/3rd the price wholesale.
If you have a good Mrs though you’d agree to offset the gifts a week or month from today so you don’t pay the premium.
from my local florist, i can get them a lot cheaper
