Either don't give an e-mail addy, or make a toss-away one for one-time use. When your transaction is complete, delete the addy. Simple, really. Never give out your main e-mail addy to marketers.

My daughter got some from a friend last year -- he got them on one of their sales (several talk show hosts run "specials", such s 6 for $19.95. The shipping is expensive, though).

They were very pretty, nicely packaged, and quite tasty. A dozen would be a lot to eat in a day or so. It's not something that I'd want on a regular basis, but for a one time fling for something fun -- sure.

Same here. There's a good candy place not too far away.

Out here where we grow strawberries we make our own.

Now the fun part.

Here are the names of two of the women that work here at the hospital.

Got some as a Christmans gift. Berries were large and good, but several had covering that was all broken.
When you bit into one,even the few intact, the coating would just fall off the whole thing.
As others said, that coating was nothing special.
I agree, over priced..

I sent them an email to complain but never heard from them. I won't ever use them for flowers, and would hesitate to buy from Shari's. On the other hand berries don't need to open, so maybe they would be okay.

I have ordered 20x from Proflowers and my experience has been that they were EXCELLENT. And they compared very favorably to the flowers I used to order through FTD that was serviced by a local florist.

if you are unhappy with the flowers, give them a call and they will be replaced immediately.

When I send flowers to someone in another area or state, I research the local florists and order from them. I've never been disappointed.

FTD uses local florists.

Yes, they do, but I don't usually order the standard selections. I like to talk to the florist and ask what they have that's interesting or unusual.

You can usually find them on groupon which then makes ordering them worth it. They currently have a deal available.
