I take it this was to go to TF RETAIL customers...

Hmmm... using a focus group of NON-members....maybe FTD could....nevermeind...

Maybe we should all take the survey and cash in those *gift* certs....might cost them a buck....wonder how the consumer would get their flowers...direct ship??

There was no option for ranking all of them in a bad light... and to me most of them are pedestrian, tacky, boring...

Thank you for your participation!

To redeem your $10 coupon please visit www.teleflora.com. Your coupon code is: xxxxxx . It will expire on September 30, 2005. Please make a note of it.
 
Wonder if all those permanents are going to be drop ship. I know the trees weren't but ugh....there is such a disparity amongst shops on permanents that it is almost impossible to "wire" such an item now.
I thought most all of the containers were poor but they sure like to drop names like Radko, Fenton etc.
 
icky, icky, icky. I had a very hard time ranking any of those arrangements from favorite to least. If any of those show up as Christmas containers - glad I am not TF.

The Trees were all artificials and I would bet my $10 coupon those become a drop ship item.
 
Since all of these have permanent flowers in them..is the from Tel.com only..completely cutting out the florists.. seems so if they are giving $10.00 cert. for ordering from Tel.com.. did they really send this email to Tel. shops???
 
Thanks for posting that link, you provided the entertainment here this afternoon. The kindest thing said was 'wow, it's ugly'. If Teleflora goes with these, it's definitely going to make not buying codifieds easy.

A new low for tacky products , not 1 redeeming feature in any of this crap. None will ever see the inside of this store , CRAP!!!!!
 
Thank GOODNESS

The consensus is that these products are UUUUUGGLY (cause they are, LOL) I am sorry but if I was FORCED to pick from any of these containers I couldn't. As Inka said...good thing I'm not TF!

Being a national account TF sends us surveys for holiday product as they do many other shops... I have to say that with every survey they have sent there is always some really beautiful containers with beautiful arrangements and of course there are the dogs or over done items... anyways not once have they ended up picking the ones that I have chosen. It always seems to be the ones that I hate the most. This christmas is no exception. They really had some great ones but I guess others opinions won out. My conclusion is that the majority of florist answering the survey like TACKEY!

At the risk of piling on....

(follow the link to the all-too-funny World of Kitsch.)



p.s. Knife's Wife, the florists' responses to those container surveys are only a very small part of the decision as to which are selected. The final decision as to container, floral content and design style resides soley with Lynda Resnick.
 
The survey says....

NO WAY FOR HERE ALSO.

I even tried to do the survey and at one point it would NOT let me continue because I told the survey I would not buy any...The survey would not accept my response for all the arr.

BTW, was there a sale on candy canes down there below the 49th or something? :rolleyes:

It is formed in such a way that forces the person doing the survey to rate all choices with a different rating.

I agree Luc... they all sucked!

Checked out Val 06 TF containers?

How about the TF Valentine offering, includes 5 containers, one of which would hold doz roses, one small M&M container in TF words "requires minimum arranging", one holds 6-9 flowers (don't know about you, I prefer selling more!!!) and two are permanent arrangements!!

This site is a great education, thanks to all!

FIVE for VD????

Sheesh...OK...seems like they are following the lead of the other guys who have EIGHT for Christmas.... EIGHT ?????? what the heck's up with that...seems like 6 too many to me, but then again I did not buy any....
 
When I did the survey and went to teleflora.com to claim my gift, I could not find anyplace to claim that gift. Maybe I disqualified myself by rating everything in the area of Would Not Buy (or whatever the lowest rating was). My grandmother would have said that somebody was hit with the ugly stick.
