"I can't believe my parent's forgot my birthday," pouted a teenaged Molly Ringwald. "They live for this stuff." Ringwald's Sam may have had a better Sixteen Candles if her parents and grandparents had lived in 2005 instead of 1984. What to get for the sixteen year old that has everything? How about a birthday tin of assorted popcorn to share with that handsome senior? Or maybe a Lenox watch? Maybe your sixteen year old likes to luxuriate with bath balls and massage scrubbers in a hot after dinner bath. You can get any or all of the above delivered straight to her door through an online florist.
Perhaps you haven't forgotten a birthday, but you have received the shock that every man dreads: that sharpie ink in the shape of a heart on your desktop calendar. That's right, it's your anniversary, and you've forgotten to pick up a gift for your wife. Roses might do the trick, but toss in some chocolates or a back massager and you're golden. You'd be surprised how much variety can be found in last minute online gift shopping at a virtual florist’s shop.
Don't let the morning's discovery burden your secretary's day with running from shop to shop or frantic phone book flipping for the perfect gift. The virtual directory of your local online florist has everything from steak knives to Waterford crystal, and yes, even flowers. A lunchtime delivery gives the added bonus of coming home to a happily surprised wife. Today's online florists are like five shops in one. The convenience of being able to shop online for so many things in one place and pay for them all together could have you months ahead of your gift giving calendar. That way you never forget, and the gift doesn't sit in your trunk two weeks past the birthday it was intended for.
We don't always think of every occasion. Maybe your pre-schooler's graduation slipped your mind, but a friendly phone call from your spouse has you re-thinking the ice cream cake. A point and click will have a cap and gown clad teddy bear waiting for your toddler after his afternoon nap. National Secretary's Day wasn't on your calendar, but suddenly every assistant in the office has a new pencil sharpener. What do you do when the gift-getter needs a gift? A quick online search could have your trusted organizer up to their ears in chocolate or flowers by the afternoon rundown. Never let someone forget how much you truly appreciate them, when in the time it takes to worry about it, you can send a thoughtful, personal gift from an online florist. Now you have no excuse. With the built in ease of checking your email and automatic withdrawal from your checking via debit, it's like going to the mall without ever leaving your chair.
