Right now I'm just awaiting the call that my Tux has arrived at the store, so I can go pick it up. But in the meantime I've gotta go pick up corsages at a flower store somewhere. Don't know if there are any in my immediate area, I'll have to check. Anyone know how much they go for, on average?

Hm you guys are making me regret my packed lunch. Ramen noodles, crackers and cheese :\

sorry i'm no help. the last corsage i bought was at least 17 years ago.

Ten years ago my date's corsage cost $50. I have no idea what effect inflation has had since then - I think it depends upon how nice the corsage is, though

Altamont, that is my packed lunch.

 

[Angcuru]

Ouch. That's a lot for a corsage. I'm thinking maybe in the $15-20 range, as it's only a Junior Prom, not a wedding or something. Heck, I'll see when I go pick them up. Which will be in perhaps an hour or so. :\

 

[Altamont Ravenard]

50$?? That's more than twice the price of a nice bouquet of flowers... I'm happy I didn't buy one, and spent the money on a tailor made suit... The jacket was White on the left side, black on the right side. The pants were reversed. I had a black shirt and a white bow-tie. And black running shows. I had fun at my high school prom.

 

[Angcuru]

Yeah, I'm thinking the costs have gone down significantly. I know my date wants one but I'm not sure about getting one for myself. It should be good enough that I look amazing in a Tux.
