Almost 24 hours later, I received an email saying they didn't deliver to that zip code and to call them. When I called, she said she had been trying to call my number all day. The number was an old home number I haven't had for over 15 years, but the email came through fine - she should have emailed sooner! I'm not sure why the number I left with the order online wasn't contacted. They canceled my order and never ran my card, but it was so late in the day when I received the email and spoke with them, I couldn't arrange for flowers to be delivered until the next day, and my friend's mother was gravely ill... The lady I spoke with never really apologized, and she acted like it was my fault I expected flowers from this far away to be delivered an hour away. I told her I was trying to shop locally, and usually, florists would subcontract out closer to the delivery address. She said she had never heard of such a thing. I recommended she correct the option on the Internet because this was extremely disappointing. She said, "Alright - bye."

I was about to go with one of those large commercial florists until my cousin suggested Mountain Oak Florist &Gifts, which is her preferred florist for her mom. She sent me their website info, and I went ahead and had a look-see. As a small business their selection wasn't as vast as anything a Buzzfeed article suggests, but that's what attracted me to what they offer. Their arrangements are categorized into almost 30 themes, and my son and I enjoyed going through more than just the birthday and anniversary ones because the images were so pretty. The vases and baskets in which the flowers were arranged seemed thoughtfully selected for each colorful bouquet. We decided on Floral Freshness for my auntie. And here's one of the main reasons why I'm posting this: My online order requested for my auntie's flowers to be send on 2/26, but about an hour ago, my cousin said that my auntie's bouquet had been delivered early. Awesome!* I don't send a lot of flowers, but talking to my auntie reminded me of how good it feels to do it. I'm really glad that I went with Mountain Oak instead of a larger retailer. I look forward to using them again. *No offense to the other yelper whose flowers missed a funeral, 'cause that sucks.

He converted some 2 prong outlets to 3 prong outlets. Work was completed as requested and cost was reasonable. Gave an excuse for being late that I only half believed. Second visit: Kris replaced a low-voltage transformer, which he acquired, for my landscape lights. Total cost was $300. While here, we discussed replacing the actual lights hooked up to to the transformer as a few were out. He said he'd get back to me. I had thought that the transformer likely cost $150-ish so the total, $300 parts & labor, was high, but I didn't say anything. I found out later that the transformer, a Home Depot brand, was only about $75. The work took maybe an hour and a half, so $225 for the labor?? I don't know anyone on an hourly wage that gets over $100 per hour. The average hourly rate for an electrician in GA according to multiple online sources is between $24.92-$38.11. I received a text from Kris about a week later saying he had the landscape lights we discussed and could come the next week to install them. The cost would be $500. These are basically plug & play lights and it would probably take about an hour to complete the work. I looked online and found the lights cost a total of $150. That means he was going to charge me $350 for labor. When I texted back for the break down, he claimed the lights were $200 and the labor would be $300. I replied back: So I went online. I can get the lights for $150. And $300 for maybe an hour of labor is ridiculous. I'll pass. His reply: Okay, that's why I suggested you can change them out yourself to save money. I can't show up at your house for free. I have a business to run not a charity. I never asked him to do the work for free and if he didn't want to do it in the first place he could have just said so. Instead, he decided he would attempt to charge me a ridiculous amount of money. I would not hire him again and would not recommend him.
