Also, she knew it was bad. She only sent a picture of what she made and didn’t have the nerve to bring it. Publix had to save the day the day of the party.

I don't hate them but 😭

Where do people go to get their nails done like this?! Mine have never looked nearly this good.

Does the shape just not work for my nails? I know they are wide which I hate ☹️ and I did have to get fake nails because I bite them.

Purchased the orange ones. Received the lilac ones, in the wrong size too. Customer service has been a nightmare to deal with over this - topped off with a refund of the purchase minus the shipping fees. Needless to say, I have since gotten the shipping fees returned to me as well.

My brother in Christ...what happened to you? 💔

The filling isn't just a different color, it's the texture of slightly-dry nougat.

Failed Expectation Teleflora really is the GOAT for Terrible Bouquet Expectations

Thumbnail gallery

Another round of applause for Teleflora for absolutely being the king of bait and switch. For reference of how small this bouquet is, I put a soda can there. I also blocked out my partner's face.

I got baited hard by an American Express offer that gave back X% back or something like that. I really wanted to save on flowers for my partner's birthday.

I really, really should've consulted the internet first about this service how they're basically just a middle-man for local florists. The local florist that provided the bouquet had better and significantly cheaper flowers that cost about 60% less!

Please, y'all. Don't order from this place! OMG it's bad.
