Buy Yourself a Just Add Ice Orchid ‘Because You’re Worth It’

November 23, 2011

Remember those L’Oreal commercials from a few years ago that featured actress Andie MacDowell and ended with the tag line “because you’re worth it”? How often do we give a friend or family member or co-worker a gift that we would love to have? Why is it that we find it so easy to rationalize spending money on someone else but not on ourselves? We’re certainly deserving. And there’s nothing wrong with indulging yourself, especially when the price is right. But think about it. As often as you go to the store, when was the last time you bought something for yourself, not because you needed it, but simply because you wanted it? That long ago, huh?

Maybe it’s time we changed our thinking. Start now. When you stop by the store to pick up a gorgeous Just Add Ice Orchid for a family member or friend, buy one for yourself, too. You don’t have to have a reason. Do it simply because looking at the beautiful sweeping lines and dazzling colors of these exotic flowers makes your heart sing. Do it because you’re worth it!

You won’t be the only person selecting a beautiful Phalaenopsis orchids for her own home. According to the National Retail Federation, self-gifting is one of this year’s big holiday trends. After weathering the recession and keeping their pocketbooks closed for the last couple of years, American shoppers are ready to splurge -- but just a little bit. Affordable luxuries that add pleasure to life without breaking the bank are expected to be popular this holiday season. When you need a little splurge,  Just Add Ice Orchids are the perfect choice. They’re exotic and elegant, very affordably priced ($10 to $25), and bloom for up to three months, providing months of pleasure.
