1800Flowers Made My Irish Eyes Smile - Product Review

IMG_2018


Sometimes you enter a sweepstakes because you hope to win a lower-level prize. I know that might sound crazy to you but sometimes when you are evaluating a sweepstakes. It's not that you don't want the Grand Prize but you think believe for whatever reason that there's no way whatsoever that you would win but some of the other prizes sure do look nice.

That's the way it was when I entered the ESPN and 1-800-Flowers' WOW Moment of the Day Sweepstakes. The Grand Prize looked so amazing. The Grand Prize featured a trip two at Disney World in Orlando including a NASCAR racing experience, a baseball game, and more. I LOVE Disney and certainly wouldn't turn down the opportunity to take a trip to the Magic Kingdom but we're talking about a sweepstakes featured on ESPN so there would be thousands of entries and what in the world would make me think that I would or could win.

Actually, I was hoping to win either first or second prize each of which offered a 1-800-Flowers.com Arrangement of the Month. I LOVE flowers and the very possibility of receiving fresh flowers every month for either three months or six month seemed like a WONDERFUL prize.

Can you imagine how shocked I was to learn that I was indeed chosen as the Grand Prize winner of the ESPN and 1-800-Flowers' WOW Moment of the Day Sweepstakes? The prize included a 1-800-Flowers Arrangement of the Month 12 Month Bouquet Club. Yesterday I received the very first installment of floral ecstasy.


While this bouquet features Bells of Ireland and festive green poms it doesn't mean that it's only appropriate for St. Patrick's Day. The Oriental lilies add a touch of sophistication and I just love their sweet fragrance. This arrangement certainly made my Irish eyes smile.

I can't wait to tell you all about the BEST Trip win I've ever won but trust me, if all the bouquets from the 1-800-Flowers Arrangement of the Month 12 Month Bouquet Club wind up as wonderful as this, well then this was definitely the icing on the cake.

Thank you again 1-800-Flowers and ESPN for this AMAZING, ASTOUNDING, IMPRESSIVE, Prize EVER!!!
