I bought flowers online to be delivered to a very dear friend on Valentine's day. Stupidly, despite the website asking me to specify the day for delivery, they delivered it five hours after I ordered it - nearly three days ahead of when I asked for it to be delivered. Heh.

Still, she loved it.



(Not the actual flowers she received, although it did look very similar and there were no seasonal substitutions. Image from the florist's website.)

I suspect that, if you made a complaint, then they'd offer compensation, first suggesting that it be in the form of a delivery to your friend on Valentine's Day.

Do you think? Maybe I should complain then. At least get an apology if nothing else.

(I just checked the order, and despite my clear recollection of selecting delivery for the 14th, it shows 11th on the order confirmation email, so I don't have a leg to stand on. It must not have saved. Sigh.)

Well, it still came during the period around Valentine's Day, and pleased your friend.

Absolutely =) And this way, it won't detract from her day with her guy - which I had forgotten it might do, so it's worked out nicely indeed =)

What a nice thought! Shame about the delivery mix-up.. but early is better than missing, I suppose!

You! Take care of self! Do not talk to me till you are THOROUGHLY rested!

*many many hugs, and severe threats of fish-smacks to the head if orders are not followed, or if a reply is made before orders have been followed*
