A bouquet on a birthday, a basket of treats for a new neighbor, a plant sent with sympathy: gifts like these say a great deal, especially when you cannot be there in person. They also add up over a year of birthdays, anniversaries and holidays. Member savings on flower delivery discounts and gift shops online make it easier to send something thoughtful every time the calendar calls for it.
Below, each retailer is matched to the occasion it suits best, with the key features of the member offer set out so you can choose at a glance.
Why Ordering Gifts Online Works So Well
Families are spread further apart than ever, and a gift sent online can arrive at a door hundreds of miles away on the right day. Ordering from home also means time to compare arrangements, read descriptions and write a proper message, rather than grabbing whatever is left at the supermarket on the way to a party. For anyone who finds busy stores tiring, or simply prefers to plan ahead, online gifting turns a chore into a few calm minutes at the kitchen table. Member savings that apply automatically at checkout make it even more straightforward.

Sympathy and Get-Well Wishes
Plants by FTD
- 25% off all plants sitewide, applied automatically.
- 30% off select items with a promo code.
- No minimum purchase, plus the same $15 off FTD Plus.
A plant lasts far longer than cut flowers, which is why many people choose one as a sympathy gift or for someone recovering at home.
Holidays and Thank-Yous
The Gift Basket Store
- 10% off gift baskets sitewide, including baskets already on sale.
- No promo code needed; the member discount applies automatically.
- No minimum purchase.
Gift baskets are a reliable choice for the whole family to share, and a natural thank-you for a helpful neighbor or a doctor’s office team at the holidays. Browsing gift baskets online also saves a trip to the store when time is short.
Experiences and Keepsakes
Wonderbox
- $15 off online orders of $49 or more.
- Curated experience gift boxes covering movies, sports, dining and spa days.
An experience box suits the person who already has everything and would rather enjoy a day out.
Remento
- $15 off The Voice-Powered Memory Book.
- Recorded stories are turned into written ones, collected in a keepsake book.
It is a meaningful gift for grandparents, capturing family stories in their own words for the next generation.
Matching the Gift to the Person
The most memorable gifts reflect the person receiving them. A keen gardener will get years of pleasure from a potted plant, while a friend who loves to entertain might prefer a basket of treats to share. Someone who values time with family could treasure a memory book far more than flowers that fade in a week, and a busy couple may appreciate an experience they can book when it suits them. Thinking about the recipient first, and the occasion second, usually points straight to the right shop.
Ordering and Delivery Tips
- Order a few days ahead of busy dates such as Mother’s Day and Valentine’s Day, even where same-day delivery is offered.
- Double-check the delivery address and add a phone number for the recipient.
- Keep the gift message short and personal; it is often the part people keep.
- Check which fees, such as delivery and customizations, are excluded from the member saving.
- Note birthdays and anniversaries in one calendar so nothing slips past.
