Price of flowers

Why is it the price of flowers always goes up round mothers day and valentines day and easter?

I went to buy some flowers for mothers day and okay i was looking at yellow roses because they were my mums favourite flowers and they were £7.99. If i'd bought them last week they were only £4.99 at the same shop.

All the kids though buying a bunch of flowers for mothers day out of their spending money you would have thought they'd have made enough profit anyway.

Did you ask the florist why they had put the price up?

advertising in all national papers, £5.00 a big bunch of roses, valentines day is the biggest rip off,if it warms up a bit the parks may have daffodils blooming ready for sunday! :D

Re: Price of flowers

I'd far rather have a bunch of flowers bought for me on any other day of the year than have someone forced to buy them on Mother's day - it means much more!
