A lot of flower shops operate mostly off delivery. Probably just the local place with the 1-800-flowers (or whoever the big flower company is these days) contract.

Yea there is a tiny flower stand in the parking lot of a mall near me. I went there thinking I could get a cheaper price for flowers for my wedding. Turns out this was just a small store front to meet with clients. They actually own a warehouse where they do most of their business for companies/hotels.

They were nice and still gave me a good price if I agreed to using left over flowers. I had no idea what the flowers were going to look like until I picked them up for my weeding but it was cheap and worth it.
