Hint Cards – A review and giveaway

Most women love to get flowers.  Even if they don’t always think so, it’s always great to get that special delivery at work or at home, or to have a loved one come home with flowers as a gift.  Thanks to the California Cut Flowers Commission, ordering flowers is easy as ever.

I received a gorgeous bouquet of flowers courtesty of the California Cut Flowers Commission.  They were gorgeous and very spring-like.

hintcardsThe California Comission on Cut Flowers has come up with a great way for women or really anyone for that matter, to drop hints that they would love some flowers. The Commission is going to be debuting “Hint Cards” in floral retailers soon.

The Hint Cards are a great idea. There are 25 in a set. They have cute little “hints” printed on them such as “Psst…My Favorite Flower is in Season.” On the back of each hint card is a message from California Cut Flowers “suggesting” that a loved one would love some of America’s Freshest Cut Flowers.

I thought that these were great.  Instead of bugging a loved one to buy you flowers, you can leave these cards lying around and subtly hint that you would like flowers.  The sayings have just a little bit of romance and humor and would be great to leave lying around or slip in someone’s lunch box.

25 of my lucky readers will get to win their own set of Hint Cards. Here’s how:

  1. Tell me in the comments the last time you received flowers or the last time you purchased flowers.
  2. The contest will run until Saturday, June 20th at 11:59 pm central. The winner will be selected through random.org, contacted by e-mail, and listed on this post. Giveaway open to US winners only.
  3. Please leave a valid e-mail address or other way to contact you! If the winner hasn’t responded within 3 days, an alternate winner will be chosen by random.org

    Actually, it wasn’t too long ago… my boyfriend bought a colorful bouquet a few weeks ago. I loved them so much that they are drying in my kitchen. ::)

    The last time I received flowers was the weekend after Mother’s Day since we were doing a re-do of Mother’s Day (we had been out of town on the actual day). The flowers were very nice, however they were pretty much all the happened to distinguish the day from any other!

  11. Erma, June 19, 2009:

    I have never recieved any flower.

  12. Dustin McKellar, June 19, 2009:
