I just got an email from Pro Flowers and hit the unsubcribe link. They are gutless. Let them get the Libs support.
(Excerpt) Read more at proflowers.com ...
Thanks for reminding me. I think I’ll do likewise.
I’m doing the same and letting them know why.
“Let them get the Libs support.”
Never happen.
The libs are all for ‘boycotting’ but never for ‘buycotting’.
They only play ‘half’ the game.
Liberal media spin in coming days...Bank on it.
“Conservatives attack small businesses”.... LOL!
I know some liberals, and they're CHEAP. The ones I know won't buy flowers online.
Are you me? I just did it, too. LOL
Good for us.
Hey, very un-informative!
You just provided a link to flowers for all occasions like I would see anytime, what is the problem?
At least provide the email.
Don’t forget that Sherri’s Berries and CherryMoon Farms are also their brands. Order elsewhere, send them a copy of your order. Mother’s Day is coming.
Good for you
We Freepes shpuld flood their emails and phones and tell them NO more ordering from them
when I have time I will find all the email links and phone numbers
we can’t let the left win on this
So did I. Thanks for the suggestion.
Is proflowers affiliated with 1-800 flowers? I have never used proflowers that I can recall, but have used 1-800 flowers fairly often.
People can CALL ProFlowers and let them know how they feel about this:
1-800-580-2913
Ditto!
Here is there toll free number: ProFlowers Delivery - Send Flowers, Gifts, and Plants 800.580.2913
And their email address is:
wecare@customercare.ProFlowers.com
Let them know they made a big mistake...
I just went to thie web site and sent them this...”Cancelling your advertising on the Rush Limbaugh show necessitates my no longer purchasing your product. That will go for my Mother, Sister, 3 Brothers in law and many friends. The media will gleefully advertise your cancellation. I will explain the importance of boycotting your product and why”.
Bad decison to send out their unsolicited email so soon after removing their ads from Rush. I unsubscribed, too.
I did it too, plus I sent them an email telling them I would no longer purchase flowers from them.
Good thread! Nothing like being active in defense of our liberties. I don’t have anything to unsubscribe but I enjoyed seeing others here doing it.
BTW, love your screen name. Soon our Bluebirds will be doing that here in Central NY. Yay!
“Is proflowers affiliated with 1-800 flowers? I have never used proflowers that I can recall, but have used 1-800 flowers fairly often.
No, I think they are competitors.
GOOD! Thank you very much.
I did the same this morning and got this as part of their reply:
At ProFlowers, our mission is to delight our customers with fresh and long lasting flowers, and that is our singular focus each and every day. We do not base our advertising decisions to align with any particular political view or opinion as our employees and customers are as diverse as the USA. Mr. Limbaugh?s recent comments went beyond political discourse to a personal attack and do not reflect our values as a company. As such, ProFlowers has suspended advertising on The Rush Limbaugh radio program.
I read further down the Freep page and found out lots of advertisers canceled Rush, so I canceled ProFlowers
here is what I said:
I no longer wish to do business with your company.
When a woman testifies in front of Congress that she has so much sex and needs the taxpayers to pay for her contraceptives (after we pay for her schooling too) then she has called herself a slut. ***
Rush Limbaugh just told the truth.
I started using Proflowers BECAUSE of Rush, you cancel with Rush over this and you lose me too.
Goodbye
my email
*** (OK she didn’t talk about herself but taxpayers don’t need to pay for anyone’s pills or condoms)
“Suspended”.....they’ll be back when the heat dies down. A little known fact outside of the Sales department at a radio station is that a show like Rush’s being syndicated must buy a certain amount of Ad Time. Most of this time is NOT during Rush’s show. This also gives the sponsors a degree of separation from the show.

I did the same.

Just unsubscribed from Pro Flowers. I wonder if that also unsubscribes me from Sherries Berries and the other related sites?
In this day and age, you can get it in two seconds.
I just tried to get them as little promotion as possible.
Also contacted them...
told them to stop using their ads as extortion...
thanks for the link.
I hope you were able to tell them why.
If you are anyone else is using Carbonite, drop them and tell them why.
There are a lot of other options. I like Crashplan.com It is free if you are backing up to your own computers or friend or work, and it is more reasonable than Mozy or Carbonite if you want to use their cloud.
It is cool and easy to use. My manager at my new job site put me onto it.
Me too
With Rush, we are seeing that Boycotting does work. He, Hannity, and others always say it doesn’t work, but in reality, they have always feared it and lie to us about the effectiveness because they don’t want it turned on themselves.
I love Rush, Hannity, Levin and others, but if they ever tell me a boycott won’t work, I won’t believe them.
I have been boycotting General Motors, General Electric, MSNBC, Disney, and a lot of Hollywood actors for a while. Why give my hard earned money to people who are destructive to my way of life?
Just dropped my ProFlowers subscriptions as well and let them know the reasons.
I saw about 6 or 7 playing around in my yard the other day and stopped and watched them. Beautiful. I also watched a bunch of young Cardinals, yesterday. :-)
the libs can’t even pay for their own contraception, and Proflowers thinks they’ll be ordering expensive bouquets?
HA!
Unsubscribed from them and will no longer use them, and I used them a fair bit (lot of friends in the USA, and flowers make a nice gift to cheer up someone who is feeling down.)
Added the All part because I now need a good replacement service! Any suggestions?
I know boycotting works, but that wasn’t my point.
Liberals ‘boycott’ but never ‘buycott’.
In other words, these advertisers are bound to lose conservative customers from pulling out and won’t gain any liberal customers.
They may end up ‘cutting off their noses to spite their faces’.
Ditto. And I told them so on Twitter.
Woohoo! Maybe they are coming our way. :-)
Just followed your lead, thanks
I sent them a complaint also and said I will never order their products again unless they reinstate Rush’s advertising contract.
I’m sure they will make up the loss of business with more gay couples and sluts sending flowers. < / sarcasm >
Good. These people need to know that caving to the communist left means the loss of business.
The seven (so far) advertisers attempting to kick Rush to the curb are:
Quicken Loans, Sleep Train, Sleep Number, Citrix, Carbonite, and Legal Zoom, and now ProFlowers.
It makes me wonder if the reason Hannity switched to Mozy from Carbonite was because they jumped ship on him? Who knows.
