Florist News

I never EVER sell my little cards cos they are expensive, they have my shop details on the back, which I don't want going on some half dead supermarket rubbish and a flower card is the only thing they can't get from anywhere but a florist!
I had a snotty lady a few weeks ago who wanted to buy one and I said no...she started rambling about where else will she get a card from...I said thr the CARD shop across the road!!! she can go and buy a proper one for 2 quid, she probably though I'd only charge her 10p and it'd save her coughing up for a proper one

We sell anything if it makes a profit...ribbon cello oasis ...thats a good 1 cos the local church buys a box off us at a time ...instant cash profit !! We have people coming in with Christmas hampers and we charge upto £10 to wrap them and they are happy to pay !!keeer ching ching ching goes our till

I'm a bit like that - sell all sorts of bits and bobs to the church ladies and a couple of others in the village that flower arrange but although i expect they do get some of their flowers from the supermarket - its 10 miles away and so when they only buy some spray cars or Xanths and say they've raided their gardens, i tend to believe them. They appreciate the service and take a pride in remembering me when they prune. . . i get some gorgeous free foliage!

Although Village life doesn't have the passing trade that you townies have, i'm beginning to feel from the posts on here that i'm the lucky one. My customers have the attitude that why should they go anywhere else when they have a shop in the village.

I'll never get rich here - but its a very pleasant place to be!
