Valentine’s Day is just one week away but did you know you can still order beautiful Valentine’s Day flowers from Costco.com!?

Order by 12:00 Noon PST on Wednesday February 8th for Valentine’s Day (Tuesday 14 February) delivery before 8:00 PM. (Note: these are flowers only, no vase is included.)

A box of 50 Stem Valentine’s Day White Roses (item #1141912),

50 Stem Valentine’s Day Hot Pink & Light Pink Roses (item #1141397),

or 50 Stem Valentine’s Day Yellow Roses (item #1141910)

are each also just $49.99, ($0.99 a rose) and include shipping & handling. Order by 12:00 Noon PST on Wed February 8th for Valentine’s Day (Tuesday 14 February) delivery before 8:00 PM. (Note: these are flowers only, no vases are included.)

To see just how great of a deal the Costco prices are I looked up the top three floral websites and priced out similar products using my moms address as the delivery location and chose February 14th as the delivery date.

On ProFlowers.com I found Three Dozen (36) Long Stem Red Roses for $99.95. That price does not include a vase but one can be added for an additional $9.99-$19.99. Standard Valentine’s Day delivery is $19.99, plus a $2.99 “care & handling” fee, and if you want your flowers delivered before noon on Valentine’s Day (14 Feb) that will cost you an additional fee of $14.99. Not including shipping & handling fees these roses are $2.78 each, which makes them 180% MORE expensive than the Costco red roses!

On 1800flowers.com you can get 48 Long Stem Red Roses for $289.99. That price does include a vase, but shipping & handling is $17.99, and an additional $7.99 “up charge” if you want delivery on actual Valentine’s Day. So even before adding in the shipping & handling you would be paying $6.04 per rose, which makes these roses an astonishing 510% MORE expensive than the Costco red roses!!

On FTD.com I found Fifty Red Roses for $144.99 without a vase. A vase can be added for an additional $10 for a clear glass vase or an additional $20 for a red glass vase. The shipping & handling service fee is $21.99. Before shipping & handling are added these roses will cost you $2.90 each, which makes them 192% MORE expensive than the Costco red roses!

Now I realize that these flowers are not identical to the Costco ones as they are of the “long stem” variety, but do you really way to pay 180% – 510% MORE just to get 10cm more of stem length???

Costco.com also has Two Dozen Valentine’s Day White Garden Roses for $59.99 (no vase, but includes shipping & handling). Choose from three different varieties of these premium, fragrant garden roses: White O’Hara, Classic Woman, or Jeans Moreau.

(Garden roses are unique flowers that require special care so be sure to follow the care instructions listed on costco.com to ensure they last!)
