Default 5 year anniversary on Friday

So my wife and I are celebrating our 5th year and I want to do something special, but we're broke because we just took our son to DisneyWorld. I have the room and the wine set up, but I'm looking for hook-ups on flowers. Anybody here a florist?

If I knew you better I would probably send you flowers from 1800flowers.com, I have alway been impressed with there selection, cost money, but from what I have seen, they are the best.

For my 7 month anniversary, I got 7 dozen roses of seven different colors (again, the magic number 7 appears), all beautifully arranged. Got them at Sam's Club for an unbelievably low price. Most people don't realize that Sam's Club does custom floral arrangements. When I wheeled them out on a big flat cart, every guy in the place asked me where I got them and how much I paid. If you want, PM me and I'll tell you what it cost me in case she's lurking.

My first anniversary is coming up on April 3rd. Congratulations on your fifth.

Like I said, if you knew how cost effective it was to do this through Sam's Club, you wouldn't be too suprised.

This was in response to comments made by my wife about friends of ours who got married shortly before we did. He had bought his wife roses every month for the first year, and compounded the number each month (month one, 1 rose, month 2, 2+1=3 roses, month 3, 3+3 = 6 roses, etc.). So, I covered the entire year and then some with 144 roses. She said that was more than enough to vindicate me. She never mentioned them again.
