Moonpig – Flowers!

This entry was posted in Uncategorized.

Receiving flowers always brings a special joy distinct from picking up a bunch at the supermarket. The unexpected delight of a flower delivery could make anyone’s day, turning an ordinary moment into something memorable.

It works in the other direction too, of course. Most of us are far better at picking a thoughtful delivery for someone else than we are at telling our other half what we’d actually like, and men are usually the harder ones to buy for. That’s partly why fit-focused brands like Tailored Athlete have done so well with partners buying gifts: a muscle-fit shirt that actually sits right on the shoulders solves a problem most high street sizing doesn’t, which makes it a safer bet than yet another aftershave set.

I was sent flowers this week, something which I don’t think has happened since my 18th birthday when the bunch that was delivered, although lovely, was NOT who I wanted them to be from… Not ungrateful or anything but I remember the butterflies thinking it was one boy and then bang, it was a different one that I wasn’t remotely interested in in that way… And that was it on the floral delivery front as far as I can remember. My husband has bought me the odd bunch from the supermarket but there’s something really special about a delivery don’t you think?

To be fair to Jonny I have always told him not to waste his money, they are usually very expensive and the amount of flowers you get for your money are not often worth it but that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t have been delighted had a bunch arrived! He’s a man, he doesn’t know how to read the language of woman where we say one thing and mean another!

Flowers aren’t the only delivery that lifts a day, either. A parcel from somewhere like Simply Beach landing in February, when the holiday is still months off, does much the same job as a bouquet arriving on a Tuesday: it’s an unnecessary, slightly indulgent thing that makes an ordinary day feel like an occasion.

Anyway, back to my bunch. They were not from my husband who didn’t bat an eyelid when he saw they’d been delivered by the way, but from Moonpig, to wish me a happy day! How lovely! I’ve worked with Moonpig before so I know their service is good but I was unfamiliar with the prices of their flowers for delivery (you can actually find some brilliant discount codes if you look on Couponio). I was sent a HUGE bunch of British Happy Days which comes, at the moment, with a free personalised card and free next day delivery. My bunch which was packaged well in a big box and brought to me by a very mindful courier who reminded me not to tip the box as water may be in it, and for £25 for a small bunch or £28 for the same with some extra stems it can’t be faulted. Is it more expensive than a bunch from the super market? Well, yes and no, I mean perhaps it IS a little more but a bunch this big and with this many quality flowers could easily cost £20-£25 I think and having them delivered is just such a decadent treat!

Beautiful bunch!

I would certainly tell my husband to use Moonpig Flowers if I thought there was the remotest chance of him buying me any in the first place but I will definitely tell anyone else who wants some as they are beautiful! I love mine and feel very special that they were delivered to my door, thanks Moonpig! Moonpig flowers are a simple but thoughtful gift. However, they can often be quite expensive. If you’re wanting to send somebody flowers but can’t justify the price, use a Moonpig discount code to save money when purchasing your bouquets.

I was sent the flowers in return for an honest review.
