*** Save 50% On Flower Orders ***
To understand how we offer such low prices, you first have to understand how the flower business works. Anytime you order flowers for delivery outside of your local area, the florist uses a floral network (such as FTD or Teleflora) to relay your order to a flower shop in the delivery location. This flower shop creates your arrangement, delivers it, and then charges a reduced price to the florist who took the order from you. The problem is that the florist who took your order does not make enough profit from this, so they charge you an extra fee of up to $14.95. They call it a "delivery fee", "wire fee", "service fee", or "surcharge" and most of the time don't even tell you about it until right before you pay for the order.
At CheapFlowers.com, we send out your order the same way as other florists do (using floral networks), but we don't charge you an extra fee. We spent over $100,000 to automate our order processing system, making our internal costs much lower than other florists. This, plus the fact that we handle a high volume of orders (over 100,000 flower deliveries since we started in 2003), allows us to keep our prices low. |
