The Rose Market

If all commodities were as easy to predict as roses, we'd all get rich off of the market. At certain times of year it is about impossible to fine places that have flowers from $19.99 down.

Other times you can get a full dozen for next to nothing. The nature of roses is such that you can't really stock up during the low periods and sell during the highs. This makes for a very interesting and captive market.

It can be frustrating paying a lot for something that you know is MUCH cheaper at any other time than the time you need it, but in this case there is really nothing you can do, except convince your Wife somehow that flowers are lame. (good luck)
