Product placement

Central Market: (a) ACTS — the video demonstrates its floral department's $1 rose sale, shows the staff trimming and wrapping the flowers, and explicitly recommends the store for this specific budget-friendly date idea. Removing it would change the entire premise of the video.

Romantic Gestures Under $10

Transcript

If you're in Dallas and want to make a big gesture to someone you love, but you're on a budget, this one is for you. Every Tuesday, every Central Market has a dollar rose day sale. Head over to their floral department and create a bouquet of as many or as little roses as you want. There's an array of colors to pick from, making it thoughtful and easy to personalize. And I don't know if you ever bought roses before, but they're always upwards of 20 and 30 dollars, and there's always a few in the bunch that make you feel like the dozen isn't quality. So being able to pick each one individually really speaks for itself. Usually, sales like this leave you to DIY it all, but florists on site bring it all together for you. She clipped all the excess leaves and then she arranged them beautifully. When it all comes together, you can see I picked about 12 of them because I just thought it looked really cute. I added a mixture of fall and spring colors because I thought it looked very vibrant and it would go great in my apartment. Some final touches were clipping away all the extra stems so that they would fit in the vase nicely and then she wrapped it up for you. Ask them for as much flower food as you want and they'll pack it in there as well. The wrapping, trimming, and cutting was at no additional cost. If you really want to make this a special gift, I'd get a bouquet of six and then head over to the bakery and get a little individual dessert. But look how great this came out on its own.
