We also work on 40% with all other work, funeral tributes/baskets etc.

BUT our delivery charges are extensive running from free local (a lot in our area do this) up to £6.00 depending on distance from shop..... and also on complexity of delivery,,,,, hospitals we charge a little extra to cover the extra time involved.. parking/walking to ward etc..... .....

There is no way that the competition can be doing a completely free delivery, im only guessing (we have a few used to do it round here) but the further away the delivery, the smaller their £15.00 BQ is
yes thats what i am saying. Obviously they are telling the customer that it is free but getting the charge from elsewhere which is why i am thinking of charging more for make up and box and cello etc. Got to get the money for petrol from somewhere and i do the deliveries myself, i dont have the luxury of a driver just yet. if only......
