Last Minute Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

Posted by kim on May 8, 2009

I’m actually on top of buying Mother’s Day gifts this year.  I got my own mother some cheap wine (hey, she likes cheap wine) and my grandmothers some nice cards from the Dollar Store (2/$1). My kids asked me what I wanted for Mother’s Day, and I told them the same thing I asked for last year and the year before that - for them all to get along with no fighting for one whole day! 

Anyhow, here’s a few ideas for you lollygaggers – there’s still time to get Mom something nice!

I told the kids all I wanted for Mother’s Day was for them to get along with no fighting or screaming for the day, and that lasted all of 15 minutes (history repeats itself).  But it was soon halted when a bunch of my extended family came over for a picnic lunch.  It was a beautiful day out where the men grilled hotdogs and hamburgers.  I love hosting family and friends, but I hate cleaning prior.  Luckily, I designed my house to have lots of storage and closets and a laundry room big enough to throw stuff in and shut the door. 

My aunt works part-time at a flower shop over the holidays.  She said Mother’s Day is the busiest holiday.  I had presumed it was Valentine’s Day, but she told me, “Not everyone has a valentine, but everyone has a mother.”  Good analogy. 

Hopefully soon, I’ll be able to announce our new site format! I know a lot of you are very anxious to redeem your points.  And the new site will have more point opportunities and cool prizes!  Good things come to those who wait, but as always, we still have hot, hot deals available!

Happy Mother’s Day out there to all moms, grandmothers, aunts, etc!
