Flower district & vases

Hi ladies,

In an eternal effort to save money I am trying to purchase my own vases for my centerpieces.

My flower lady told me that she can get them to me as part of my package for $18 a piece, but I have a feeling that I can get them cheaper.

I have a glass vase that is similar to a pilsner (v-shape). It's 19.5'.

So here is my question, do any of you know where I can get it for cheaper, perhaps the flower district in Manhattan, (I tried Micheals and they dont sell them that tall).

Any other place?

Thanks

i second bj's and also try Jamali's which is on the other end of that street bjs is on. i think you should go in and see them. they sell them wholesale (12 pieces) and also one by one. I actually found a better deal on my vases form ebay, but thats because i happened to get lucky with the style i loved (eiffel tower vase @ 24inches) check out efavormart on ebay. i purchased 2 sets of 12 and i paid full price shipping on one set and half price shipping on the other set, all together it was like 140, something like that, which is AMAZING and unheard of for 24 vases at 24inches. good luck!!
