8 red roses

A man walks into my shop the other day and buys 8 red roses, I ask him in polite converstion if it was his 8th anniversary, he answers no, he says your going to think Im soft if I tell you why Im getting 8. I said probably but are you going to tell anyway, he says it the amount of letters in "I LOVE YOU". You know I had never thought of that one, think I'll use it for Valentines cause sometimes you get the guy in who wont buy the dozen and says, do you think its mean if I get 6, I usually say no Im sure she'll like 6 when really I want to say, no buy the dozen she'll never speak to you again otherwise. think I'll suggest 8 instead.

Hope you read this appleblossoms - thought the 8 rose BQ was a brill idea, so we have been 'marketing' (loosest possible term - pic on a sheet with the price!!!) the 'I LOVE YOU' BQ - 8 red roses, one for each letter of ILY, just like in your post. They are going down very well! maybe you should trademark it?
