[quote=flu]Heh heh. I’ll add one. Mother’s day flowers are pretty good deal at Costco.[/quote]

I see you’re one of those subscribers to Proper Prior Planning, flu.

You’re right, though. We don’t have Costco near us, but I get my flowers at Safeway. In fact, I told my husband that if he ever bought me roses from a florist at $75 to $100 a dozen, I’d divorce him on grounds of financial mismanagement. I can get a dozen long-stems from Safeway, in any one of 30 different colors and varieties, for ten bucks. They look better the first day, and they still look good 5 to 7 days later. The florists’ roses never open up. They stay almost completely closed until their stems start to bend, and they wilt, usually in 2 or 3 days. Tell me again why I’d spend $100?

If I stick to Safeway, I ‘ll have plenty of money left over for tacos at Jack-In-The-Box.
