Think Outside The Box
There are all kinds of ways to get flowers. You can buy them at the department store, at the grocery store, at the flower shop, from flower vendors on the street, or online. You could even pick them yourself. Here’s the thing: the more strategic you are about buying flowers, the less you have to pay, and the better the overall quality.
Of course, there’s a balance to all things. If you really want to get a good deal on flowers, find the seeds of the plants you love, plant them, water them, husband them, build up a flower shed under a greenhouse, harvest at intervals, and sell your flower crop to the right people. Eventually, all your fine flowers will be free; you’ll be paid because you own the store!
That’s a bit extreme though, eh? The thing is, nobody wants to spend $200 for a bouquet to be delivered to an office, only for that bouquet to slowly become less fresh as the days go by until, eventually, you’ve got to throw it out. No flowers last forever. Some are going to last longer than others, but surely there must be a better way!
Of course, there is. Here we’ll briefly cover several ways you can find fine deals on flowers without breaking the bank.

- Finding Discounts In Pre-Throwaway Bins Locally
So all florists will have flowers that don’t sell, and eventually, those get thrown out. Before those flowers are thrown out, they’ll usually be sold at a substantial discount.
The thing is, with most bouquets like this, it’ll be pretty evident to whoever receives them that these particular flowers were on the way to “wilt city”. Unless you only need the flowers for a day or so, this is a rough way to save.
- Coupons, Discounts, And Pomo Codes
One of the most common ways to save money on flowers involves simply purchasing them with coupons, discounts, or promo codes. You can go online and use this Bouqs promo code to get some of the best flowers at the best prices on the web.
Beyond this particular deal, there are lots of opportunities for savings based on a variety of package deals and other discounts. Shop around. See what’s available locally, and online, then split the difference between the two for the best deal.
- Seasonal Shopping
Have you ever been to the grocery store and found a fruit like raspberries for like a dollar per package? Usually, they’re like three or four dollars a package; what gives? Well, two things: one, some fruits are seasonal, and two, if a big crop comes out of season, normal buyers won’t be available, so grocery stores have to move those fruits fast.
It’s quite similar with flowers. There are some flowers that come during some seasons, while others only come during rare times. If you buy flowers that are locally in season, you might be able to find a discount.

Finding The Flowers You Love at the Best Price
Seasonal shopping, discounts, coupons, and promo codes represent fine ways of saving money on just the flowers you’re looking for. You can also find discounts on flowers that are about to be thrown out and must be moved by sellers, but this generally isn’t the best idea.
Barring all these suggestions, you can always simply pick them yourself; but unless you live in a very nice region of the country, your options will be limited. The general consensus seems to be that your best bet will be to shop the deals online.
