Any update on the flower points? I am waiting for mine anxiously (order placed on 12/31 and delivered on Jan 6) to get the companion pass.

So it becomes questionable whether a Valentine's Day order will post points ahead of the devaluation?

Thankfully the 1750 points (x4) for me did not post yet. Ordered 12/27 to top off for CP as I needed 6000. Turns out that the better move was to call Chase and have them move my closing date on my credit card up to 12/28 (was1/4). That put me over but was holding my breath to see which, if either, technique would work. It is good to know for future that moving the closing date around can be very strategic. Now just need the flowers to post to give me a boost to the 15' CP!

It looks like they will really need 6-8 weeks to post the points.

Starting to feel like it. It's pretty ridiculous. I got one set of points to post in 1 week.. now we're at 3 weeks for the 12/31 points. Nothing to do but sit and wait, but man it's annoying.

Are you me? LOL.

I'm in the exact same situation. I need just under 5k points, and have those stupid orders pending. Annoying because I have a trip in mid-Feb that I'm waiting for CP to book, but the prices keep going up, and availability keeps dropping, and it's making me antsy!

Points have been posting on Tuesdays in the past, so I'm hoping tomorrow is the day..

You should definitely book the flight ASAP. You can always get the points back once you receive the CP.

I booked my flights to San Juan two weeks ago and the price is going up significantly since then.

1800 flowers has a valentines promo going on now. Just received the notice Promo code RR29 -1750 points on orders over $29.99. Valid through 2/15/14.

www.1800flowers.com/rrchase

I would like for the points to post from my previous order first before I order anything else from them.

Excellent--At least this valentines promo will be CPQP for 2014!

Orders placed from 1800flowers on 12/31/13 will very likely be backdated for CPQP for 2013. This is based on similar behavior of it having two separate dates on their point history on southwest. (post date plus original earn date)

Sorry for the duplicate post. See below for my question about the timing of the new code.

Do we need to wait for this code to post on either the Partners page or the RR shopping page before using it? There's a code listed on the partners page now, but it's only for 1000 points.

p.s. Sorry if this double posts. I posted it once, and it disappeared I guess?
