If you were in the rose business and most of your income came on Valentine's and Mother's days wouldn't you do the same thing? That is the way sales work.

buyers...
Buyers need more roses than produced in the market . So the shops increase the price. we buy them at high cost.
i have a question. If one year no Body buys roses a resolution, next year they will sell roses at bottom cost.
YOU and ME and WE decide the cost of roses

The flower shops make a killing. I can get a dozen roses any other time for about $25. Now it bumps up to over $60.

i imagine call for. Wow, I merely finished 2 semesters of economics, and that i imagine cost changes create stream alongside the decision for curve. yet, are you asking even if the cost change impacts call for or Valentine's Day impacts call for? If it impacts call for, the curve shifts, and if it impacts volume demanded, there is stream alongside the curve. outdoors factors that do not contain cost might want to create a shift in call for. warm climate shifts the decision for curve for ice cream, while cost of ice cream impacts the volume demanded. i'm effective Valentine's Day can shift the decision for curve for roses, notwithstanding the cost of roses does no longer shift the decision for curve. So, perhaps then, Valentine's Day might want to impression the decision for.

there are seasonal changes in the consumption of flowers and ornamental plants. According to Almeida and Aki (1995), flower production is concentrated during times of higher demand, such as Mothers Day, Christmas & Valentines Day.

The gods of supply and demand. When demand is high, sell high. When supply is low, sell high. The capitalistic gods always have the last laugh and the joke's always on the consumer.
