I have a little less than 2 weeks to arrange for a birthday gift (i.e. stuffed animal or flowers) to be placed in front of an apartment in Matsumoto, Japan.

FTD wants to charge me an additional $40 international fee to arrange for a Japan local florist to send the flowers. I have to be particularly frugal right now so I just can't afford the added cost. Any ideas?

I've used Flora2000 for local flower delivery in Japan before with great results. There's no additional international fee, so you might want to see if they have anything in your price range.

Amazon in Japan (amazon.co.jp) offers service in English, and domestic shipping rates are cheap or even free. Amazon also accepts non-Japanese credit cards, and you can use your friend's address as your mailing address. I just did this very same thing.
