Product: 1x Mother’s Day 10" Miniature Rose Bush in Terracotta Pot
As cute of an idea as this is… i definitely don’t trust Woot’s flower storage/shipping abilities. I’m stickin with aluminum balloons from the grocery store.
My mother always said if I ever bought her flowers for Mother’s Day she’d be offended, as it showed I didn’t even want to think of a gift for her. It’s too cliche.
Read the bottom description, it ships FedEx Overnight. Also states:
Flowers are secured by heavy packing paper and placed in a secure shipping box, preventing it from being crushed or broken from typical shipping conditions
Ha. I just had a discussion about Woot with my mom. All my woots get shipped to her house (so they dont get stolen from mine,someone got my Stewie USB toy from a woot-off) and she is always complaining about me wasting my money here… this will teach her!
Shipping flowers from California via FedEx Overnight is the worst idea in the long, sad history of bad ideas, and I’m going to be there when you learn that.
For those who didn’t look at the description, shipping is as follows:
Shipping FedEx Overnight, will arrive before Mothers Day
* Flowers are secured by heavy packing paper and placed in a secure shipping box, preventing it from being crushed or broken from typical shipping conditions
Edit: oh darn, looks like I was beaten to the punch.
