Last-Minute Mothers Day Gift Ideas
Calling all procrastinators!
Mother’s Day is May 10th and it’s right around the corner. If you haven’t purchased a Mother’s day gift just yet it’s not too late. Here are a few last minute, budget-friendly options that are still available
By Vincia Maloney
1. Give mom the spa day she wants (and needs!) with a SpaFinder Gift Certificate. At SpaFinder.com Enjoy $10 OFF now through May 10, 2009 on your certificate order of $100 or more. This Gift Certificate is accepted at over 5,000 participating spas worldwide for spa treatments. Recipients get to select the location, appointment time, treatment, or product of their choice. They can search online for the most up-to-date listing (new spas are added daily).
2. 1800flowers.com has gifts for every mom starting at $19.99 ranging from bubble bath to spa baskets to beautiful flower arrangements which are now on sale.
3. Ediblearrangements.com offers a beautiful aray of edible fruit arrangements. Strawberries, cantaloupe, pineapple, grapes, and honey dew melon are all available with an option of having them dipped in chocolate.
4. Godiva.com has a variety of chocolate and gift baskets as well. Prices range from a little under $45 to $125 and up.
5. Another idea for Mother’s day could be a personalized photo frame found on Gifts.com. A Thoughtful Mother and Daughter Keepsake Frame pays tribute to the special bond between mother and her little girl (no matter how old she is). Featuring a loving poem on one side personalized with the presenter’s name up to 11 characters and on the other side a place to display a 3-1/2"x5" photo. At a cost of only 19.95 it won’t break the bank!
6. If your budget is really tight, just be creative. Every mom needs a break and a homemade coupon book, full of great “deals” such as a free breakfast in bed, one week of no laundry, three hours of undisturbed alone time, a soothing back rub and more.
