Didn't plan ahead, and cheap too? Such a prize you are.

Never buy roses (or any other flower) on Valentine's day. You buy a pot of lovely hydrangeas the week before, for example.

It's a bouquet, not a bushel.

Really, OP. Even my teens know this.

My DH knows better than to buy me overpriced flowers this week. He buys them at random other times of the year when they are priced better.

I’ve never heard of a bushel of roses. Anyway OP, it’s Valentine’s Day. Wegmans sells 2-dozen roses for $22. This week the exact same bunch is $55 each.

i thought they always sold the same roses, bouquet or bushel at the same size. it used to be 14.99-15.99 and i remember it being a ton of roses. all red, or all orange or all yellow or all purple, etc. i dont remember the time of year making a difference or costco jacking up the prices because it was a holiday.

A bushel is a measurement and has not changed. I think you mean “bouquet.”

You’re buying flowers at one of the most expensive times of the year.

Well, "now" is Valentine's Day. So it stands to figure.

They have always been 2 dozen. Is it fewer now?

Was it 2 dozen roses? That's what was in them before.
