What creative / thoughtful gifts are you giving for mother’s day?
What are you guys giving your wives for mother’s day this year?
I didn’t want to hijack BAZ’s thread.

I won't be getting her a vacuum again this year. The one I bought her last year has never been used.

I just spent a month of weekends working on my Mom's house. Will be doing a roof soon, and the other 10 foot chimney needs rebuilding. It is a 5 hour drive.
I was thinking a card and maybe flowers. |

actually she bought me a ZT a few years back. she got tired of not using the one I bought her. many many years ago my mom asked what my wife wanted for Christmas. I jokingly said a waffle iron. THATS what she bought her. (I love waffles). my wife was NOT happy. still a running joke.

I am neither creative nor thoughtful.
My wife is getting a Mother's Day brunch. My MIL and my mother are getting flowers.

G'day!

Amazon offers sample boxes for Prime members in several categories.....most priced between $7.99 and $19.99. When you buy one - you get the same amount you paid as a credit towards a future purchase of any of the items in the sample box.
LINK to Sample Box page on Amazon I just purchased 1 women's beauty care (for my Mom). I know Mom will get a kick out of the opportunity to apply a credit towards a future purchase of one of her products.

One of my more thoughtful siblings will send my mom something and falsely give me partial credit
My wife will probably get an orchid from our kids which I will have to source since 6, 3, and 1 year olds cant drive and don't have money. I have the sentimentality of a robot

  Mercury dimes and quarters, all silver, hammered and sort of spoon shape. $48 for the dime, (daughter) and $3xx for the bracelet (wife), all chains are silver. Bought at the Occulus in NYC.

Now in 993 land ...

I send my mother flowers and call her to chat.
My wife gets things from the kids. I don't do anything for my wife. Never understood how that goes? I don't get anything from my wife for father's day either. G |

Probably just flowers. She's been dead for the last 12 years, so anything else is just being silly.
