    "Thank you" Flowers, any advice?

    I only ask here in case some of us have shopped for deals recently since valentine's is today. So I'd like to take advantage of others thrifty-ness!

    Just wondering if anyone knows where to get some cheap decent flowers for someone who did my taxes. It's my Ex's mom. I'm pretty poor so I can't afford much, but then again she got me like 800 back, and my ass hardly even worked so I'm sure she did a good job. So I'd want to use her again. Any advice on a good site or coupon sites to other sites? Thank you for your time!

    ex told me to get her flowers. I know she's an attention whore, and she's got money. And for asian people you don't really give money/gift cards to elders.

    Sending her flowers to her office would totally make her day. But it'd be totally stupid, to me, if I spent more on flowers than I would have to pay someone to do my taxes....

    Good call. No white flowers if the recipient is Asian. Depending on their level of cultural "superstition" they might find white flowers not the best for a thank-you. (White flowers are used at funerals, and are for condolences - or weddings)
