Affordable flowers?

Posted by jpm7791@reddit | Dallas | View on Reddit | 22 comments

Anyone have a recommendation for a place that has flowers for less than grocery stores and the highly visible flower shops in central/east Dallas? I'd hope there's a hidden gem out there somewhere

Trader Joe’s is great. Whole Foods uses flowers as a loss-leader at times.

I don’t get why you’re being downvoted. If OP wants less than Trader Joe’s prices for flowers I don’t think there are other options

Not condoning but like, you’re not wrong

Unfortunately... this is a thing. I saw a guy stop in front of some bushes, pop them out the ground with a shovel, toss the bushes and shovel in the back of his beat up Corolla and drive off.... took him about 45 seconds....

Damn homie, less than grocery stores? At that point, the juice isn’t worth the squeeze.

For real. Grocery store floral shops have been putting independent florists out of business for decades with their ability to buy in huge quantity and undercut small businesses on pricing.

Bought a dozen roses last week from Kroger for $5.99

If I gave my wife a bouquet that was somehow cheaper than a $10 from a grocery store, I reckon she’d whoop my ass.

Thanks, I forgot about that place. Handy with Parkit Market there. And locally owned.

Costco

Tremendous amount of flower for the money. They also tend to show greater longevity than more spendy florists provide.
