11 affordable (an in some cases, free) gift ideas for Mother’s Day

Finding the perfect gift for Mom on Mother’s Day isn’t always easy. You might assume that you need to pull out all the stops and spend big bucks to show her how much you appreciate all that she does. But, the truth is, you don’t have to spend that much to show Mom you love her.

1.  Do-nothing day—plenty of moms would love to spend a day not having to lift a finger or spend the day doing just what they want to do. So give your mom a card that tells her she is entitled to a day off—and be sure to honor it!

2.  Spa day—many spas offer Mother’s Day specials for massages and other services, so call around to find the best deal.
