The owner's name is Sam, really nice and fair guy. His arragements are always top notch. If you're on a budget just let him know what that is and he can work around it.

theres also alternatives besides bouquets , such as hanging flower baskets, moss baskets, bedding plants...in which do last alot longer than cut flowers and they remain blooming for the whole season. my family owns a flower business and you can't really go wrong with a big hanging basket that last couples months rather for 25 bucks. right?

i go to the on 41st and victoria drive. the one across from the bus stop across from CIBC on the same side as the bbt place. it's called Winnie's Florist. it's a small shop, owner's pretty nice, they do good work there. i bought my wife flowers for valentines and they delivered it for me. you're able to bargain w/ the them. you probably will even save on the tax if you tell them you're going to pay in cash. lol

Thanks guys,
Just called Vin's and got flowers and chocolate and delivery!
And in super short notice! I needed them by tmrw!
Thanks for the recommendation.
ps. I shouldn't have to say this, but just in case. For those members who know me here, don't go telling my gf that i'm sending her flowers please...

I work at a floral wholesaler so I can get flowers for super cheap and often free. 24 premium roses for 26$ fresh from miami(whole foods sells them 4$ a stem...). IMO the best shop I've been to in the city is Posy in the lynn valley strip mall in North vancouver. not sure of their services but the people there are awesome and the head florist is pretty prestigious.
