It was my fiances Birthday today and I wanted to send her something. I did a search on VJ for sending flowers and found www.flora2000.com - Gotta say, the price, delivery and product was excellent. If you're looking to send flowers and small gifts (card/bear/candy/balloon) this is the way to go.

Delivery was on time, flowers were fresh and items were as described. Very nice prices which included a dozen roses, a bear, card, balloon and small chocolates for the same price you would pay for a dozen roses delivered in the US. Only issue is their website display on your order was a little weird and I had to ask their live support (open 24/7) about it. Everything worked perfectly and I would use them again.

This is mainly for anyone who does a search for them like I did, so it shows up and they can read this. :)

I used Flora2000 when Maricar was in the Philippines and never had a problem either. Delivery was fast and the flowers always looked great. They are a top-notch outfit and highly recommended.

Good to see other happy customers. I wasn't sure about them, but I did a quick search and they "out voted" everyone else in the thread. Just want to make sure if someone does a search for them, this thread comes up. It's a pain to have to try and look for how to send a gift.

Use a debit card if you have one, or you can use cash to buy a prepaid visa/mastercard from most stores (Groceries stores, etc) and use that to buy it.

Prepaid?? Wow!! I haven't heard that ever since, I bet there is no such thing here in Saudi, but I'll try my best to look for that.
