Has anyone here had experience with this company?

Edible Arrangements

I am thinking of ordering a *bouquet* for a luncheon party on Saturday and wondering if they look as fresh in reality as they do in the photos.

i haven't personally, rissa, but i have had a few friends get it.

different experiences, mostly i heard that it wasn't actually really fresh and didn't taste real great.

plus...not sure how much you have looked into it, but it is $$$ and most of my friends have said it isn't worth it.

Price doesn't bother me, I know it will be about $100 (it's not the one I uploaded above). Will make a beautifull edible centerpiece and it's not something I would do with any regularity. Am concerned about the freshness though because I know how fast fruit wilts once it is cut and manipulated. Also concerned that they spray it with a bit of something citrussy to keep it from browning and that will affect the taste too. Thanks Beckie for the feedback!! I have about 30 minutes to decide and hopefully others will have had nothing but awesome experience... otherwise I might have to come up with a different idea.

I received one once Rissa and it was fresh and delicious. Mine had chocolate covered bananas in it that were FANTASTIC!! There was also melon, strawberries, grapes, pineapple and apples. Everything was great!

Check where your nearest outlet is. A friend had one delivered locally (from the store) and it was pretty good just very chilled so the melon was almost too hard to eat! Might be a different story if the outlet was further away.

I have never purchased one myself but have seen and eaten them many times at dinners and my inlaws'. The ones I have seen were always very nice looking and the fruit was always yummy. So far never anything bad.

I got one ordered!! Our store is brand new... so new they still have a nylon banner on the bldg so hopefully they will be going above and beyond to build a good reputation in this area. Thanks for all the input everyone.

This was from an e-mail I got this morning. I don't have a cell phone so I don't know how true it is. Pretty cool if it works!

Have you locked your keys in the car?
Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other remote for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).

Lousy e-mail anyways, lol! Like I said, I had no way to check out whether it worked or not.

I guess it's kinda like that ball you cut to try and open my car when I locked the keys in. Am I remembering it right that it was a ball? I think the guys on TV cheated. LOL

i am getting a new puppy on tuesday (lab/shepard mix - so cute!!). anyways, i do not have a name and i would like to have something picked out by the time i get her so i can start calling her her name.

i have a photo so i'm trying to say a name and look at her photo to see if she "looks like that name", if you know what i mean.

anyways, i came to you guys to see if you could give me some inspiration. i do have one name picked out...it has stuck out in my mind...Sadie.

any other suggestions?? tia.

and don't worry i'll post pictures when i get her home!!

Blanche. I always wanted a pet named Blanche, it's so moody. I love Sadie, though. And Stella.

Sophie

Chloe

Albert - (yes, I had a female dog named Albert when I was a child. I have no idea why. It was just right for that particular time and for that particlar dog. If you read through the "ask mojo" thread, I may make a little more sense to you...)

Piper

Poppy

My favorite boy name for a pet is Bartholomew and call him "Barty" for short. I guess I'm just weird like that.

If I ever have another dog, I'll name it Barker. Dog Barker.

Barker is great name, Bee! I have a friend who named his cat Bob as in Bobcat. It was hilarious watching him comb the neighborhood calling for "Bob". For a long time, people thought he was looking for his son and would often start looking and calling out, too. Then they would get so irritated when they found he was actually looking for his cat.

I had a friend who named his dog Deeohgee. It took many times of hearing him call his dog to realize the name spelled D-O-G. (I'm slow on the up-take. lol)
