Russia: Selfies for sale! Business booming for rose rental service on Women’s Day
Business was booming on Women's Day for an unusual delivery service in Moscow allowing women to rent a bouquet of roses to take selfies with.
Aleksander Moroz, the entrepreneurial owner said he also offered an "additional service of branded shopping bags" as well as the "opportunity to take a photo with an unknown man" to his social media savvy clientele.
One ten minute window with Moroz's bouquet sets selfie-takers back 1,000 roubles ($17 or €16). Flowers remain the most popular gift for loved ones on Women's Day in Russia which means a hike in florist's prices.
