Mother's Day only comes around once a year, so many of us want to do it right. Now that you've chosen flowers, what do you do next? You don't just walk into your local gas station and grab the first bunch you see. Instead, you take your time, look around, and see what your options are. If you have time and your mother lives close enough, going to a florist is still the best choice. Even though this is a scary thought,
You will get good advice, especially for men, and it's always best to see the product you're buying. Also, local delivery is usually pretty reliable, so it's a good choice even if you can't bring them in person.
The only ways to order from far away are by phone or on the Internet. Here, you have to be careful and know exactly what you want, what kind of flowers you want, and how much money you want to spend. Look for companies that offer guarantees. If something does go wrong, you will at least have a way to get your money back. On the Internet, you can use any search engine to find hundreds of florists that all offer very similar services. Read the fine print and remember that the biggest companies aren't always the best. Sometimes it's better to look for a small company close to where your mother lives.
Lastly, make sure someone is there to take the delivery. If she isn't home when the delivery comes, you might not be able to get money back for late or no delivery. Ask a neighbour to take the package if you have to, or you might ruin the surprise!
