Here's Why Illinoisans Should Buy Local For Mother’s Day Flowers

There are so many online-based floral shops that pose as legitimate, but when the day arrives your flowers are nowhere to be found. Then, the online shop disappears, your card has been charged multiple times, and you are left scrambling for flowers.

If you have no option but to shop online for Mother's Day flowers, here's how to avoid online florist scams this year:

Check for customer reviews
Review the seller's photos and advertisements
Verify the website's authenticity
Double-check the vendor's address and phone number

It's always a great option to take it to socials and ask your friends where they love getting floral arrangements in the area! That's how I found the list of credible local florists above!

The Better Business Bureau also warned about booking online with party rental companies, too. All the details about that scam here.
