Akaska South Dakota Business

 

I'm addicted. I admit it. My name is Christine and I'm a floraholic. I send flowers for any old occasion and I'm not ashamed to admit it. Last month I sent flowers to my friend on the occasion of purchasing a new car. I know I have a problem and I'm working on it. But with your help I think I can get through it.(Jen S. , Mauldin SC )

My great-grandmother’s funeral was much more sober than any other funeral I’ve been to (to many of them), and I couldn’t figure out why. Finally, it dawned on me, the flowers were wholly inappropriate for the setting. They were the whole color, the wrong style, and too ostentatious for the scene. I found out that the person in our family who normally orders the flowers (from you) had asked someone else to do it this time, and he ordered from someone else. While I don’t blame this other company entirely for the inappropriateness of the flowers - because he’s pretty much a dullard about these things - I am positive that had he ordered from you things would have been different.(Ellie O., Lewiston ME )

I have dealt with certain delivery companies before who could not handle a slight discrepancy in the address with any smarts at all. It seems like if two numbers in a zipcode are transposed, it stops them in their tracks and they delay a couple days and charge you half again as much. I admit that I sometimes get zipcodes wrong. My memory isn’t what it used to be. But someone over there recognized the mistake I made on a flower delivery and it didn’t slow them down a whit. I wish I knew who it was, because I would thank them from an old woman, so I’m saying thank you to you for possibly training your flower delivery people that way.(Bonita R., Houma LA )

Akaska South Dakota Delivery

 

Thank you so much for your professionalism and competence. I had exactly one day to send two dozen roses to a friend of mine who was shipping out for Iraq from San Diego. For some reason, the wire services were down -- or so I was told by two other flower delivery companies. I don’t know how you were able to get my order there in time, but you did. You weren’t my first choice, but you were definitely my final choice.(Alissa K. , Memphis TN )

I would never have guessed how long the roses would last, but two weeks after delivery they're still standing tall on my wife's dresser!(Davis Honour, Tucson AZ )

My daughter's wedding anniversary is right around Mother's Day, and I've always had a hard time getting gifts and flowers to arrive on time. I had just about given up, but am I glad I found out about your online ordering! Not only did the flowers arrive on-time, but my daughter actually called me to thank me about it.(Dina D. , Fort Wayne IN )

Thanks for bringing some of me to the people back home. My work doesn't allow for a whole lot of a social life, or any other type of life to speak of, but I occasionally do get to send flowers back to Chicago. It's a long way from home, but with flowers I can say to my friends and family that I haven't forgotten about them and that they still mean something to me.(Maggie J., Taegu )

Flowers are sometimes the most powerful message you can send someone. Just the fact of getting some roses causes people to change their minds, change their jobs, change their lives. I received a dozen roses from a certain lady friend a while back, and I'm not ashamed to say that I was moved. Though I can't say for certain why I was so affected by her act, I can say that I returned the favor. We both used your services, so for that I thank you. From one old Marine who didn't realize he would have this kind of response to simple flowers.(Dionne E. , Sumter SC )

As a society, we tend to send flowers out of feelings of guilt for not being in a place we would normally be. Before the advent of automobiles and airplanes, we wouldn't stray too far from home (except in a few cases), and so we didn't have a need for sending gifts through the mail, or the Internet, or using FTD, or some other wire service. But we are products of our times, and because even nuclear families are so far flung, and because husbands and wives often live and work on different continents from one another, we have this need to send gifts to one anther in lieu of being there. What we're acknowledging is that we usually do what we can to make compromises between how we would like to live and how we would like to be close to one another. It's apparently socially acceptable to be apart like this as long as we can send each other things that remind us of this emotional connection even though there's no physical connection. ROCK ON, BROTHER!!!(Rey V. , Nagoya , Japan)
