Movember $50 Moustache Contest!

Yes, it's time to get your 'stache on! November is Movember month and that means the growing of moustaches of various sizes, colours and stylings all across Canada. Bloomex is getting in on the fun while also supporting this great cause. There are some awesome photos floating around out there and we'd love to see yours!

Celebrity moustaches, moustaches on babies, animal moustaches, your own growth, your wife's, your neighbour's...the choice is wide open. We are looking for impressive, funny, or otherwise interesting photos of moustaches in any form.

  

Send us your photos to contest@bloomex.ca. Best photo wins a $50 Bloomex gift card! 

Gift card is good for fabulous flowers, gourmet foods, yummy gift baskets, adorable teddy bears...order for yourself or for someone else. Great for a head start on your holiday shopping! 
(See contest rules below for the full deets).

 

And even if you can't grow a 'stache or email a photo, you can still support the Movember campaign by buying a beautiful blue and white bouquet or a delicious and manly gift basket in our Bloomex Movember Collection. To read more about that check out our previous blog.

Good luck and let's have some fun while supporting men's health in Canada!

50 Occasions & Holidays to Send Flowers For

Whatever the occasion, send
flowers in Canada with
Bloomex.

We're coming up to a big period for gifting flowers, Christmas. But aside from Christmas and Valentine's Day, what are the biggest occasions for sending flowers? Well, that depends on who you ask and where you reside. But aside from the traditional and religious occasions, flowers can make for a great gesture on any occasion.

In all, there are hundreds of possible reasons to send flowers. We were able to come up with fifty off the top of our heads (more or less). Some might strike you as obvious, and some a bit strange, but that's what this list is about -- having some fun with it.

Here, presented for you, are 50 reasons to send flowers. If you're not sure what something means, click on the appropriate link for more information or flower suggestions.
