Valentine's Day Flowers

Anyone know where on valentine's day itself, feb 14, I can pick up 1 or more roses from a store that will still have some in stock after 5:30p.m.

I don't want to get roses delivered because she won't be home all day and I'd rather give her a rose or roses myself. However, I work from 9-5:00 on Feb 14, so has anyone had luck finding roses at walmart, cvs, walgreens, anywhere on the day itself?

If not I was considering giving her roses on the 13th? Is that lame?

Do not do this! She may not care initially but you can be sure that one of her friends will get on her about it. Then you will be toast.

You could buy them on the 13th and give on 14th.

+1 Women like this because all the women that didn't get any flowers at work make a big deal about it.

Exactly what I got. Total came out to $234.31. Flowers from local shop came out to $64.92. iPhone 4S came out to be $500. Dinner + Movie going to come out about ~$130. Earrings were $440. FML

And to add the pain, we were up late last night so she missed worked in the morning and they are thinking about firing her just because she missed work for the first time in like 5 months.
