That hasn't been a problem ever since I got thrown out of Blackwate, sold my helicopter, and stopped double-dating with Charlie Sheen.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Ted E.,
Originally posted by CovetedLakeEllyn: TED - Just saw your post!! I would love something like that. As it stands now, I end up buying flowers at the grocery store because it is convenient. What a great idea they had back in CT.
When I lived at Clark and Wrightood, the florist did the same thing. Subscribe and get delivery. Wiener Circle did not deliver. Shame.

The Snackery will deliver to any location between Baker Hill and Lambert Rd. Roosevelt to 5 corners. 8:15am - 7pm M-Sat. 9-4 Sun. Breakfast lunch or dinner. Free through March.
The owner of bws does the deliveries so the risk is minimized. If it works for pizza companies, why can't it work for others? It's a matter of thinking out of the box and being hungry for business. I too rarely get Thipi Tai since they stopped delivering, I get Bejing instead.
That's a fantastic idea to have the owner running the deliveries. Perhaps one of the reasons that B&W's endeavors have been so successful is because the owners are so hands-on without micro-managing??

See for folks like me & Scribbler, when your going for the impulse buy, you want what you want, when you want it. Why does the concept of the "customer" seem so evasive to the GEBD?
There are concierge services available for the impulsive buyer. Many concierge's cater to the affluent shopper with a "can do " attitude and nothing is "impossible" approach.
I ran into (one of my favorite) posters last night at Bells & Whistles.
His family was celebrating their beautiful daughter's birthday.
Just wanted to share a note he sent to me today.
"it was an awesome place for a quick, easy party and the whole thing cost $62. If I still had posting privileges I would put it up and encouraged people to try it. It was nice to see you. "
Great job Tracey! Looked like the kids had a blast!
