I’m a mom of 4, 3 boys and 1 newborn baby girl. Mother’s day is coming up next month. I always have a bunch of idea of things I want or need then when the question comes up “What do you want for Mother’s Day?” I always have trouble trying to think of things.
I don’t like my hubby to spend a lot of money. As far as my kids go they usually make me something which is always the best. I’ve kept so many homemade mother’s day presents. Since this is a frugal blog I wanted to suggest some Mother’s Day gift ideas for under $25.
Of course there are things that are free that really mean the most like just spending time with mom and making something on your own. But if you’re really looking to buy something here’s some ideas that I know I’d like:
iTunes gift card — I love listening to music when I clean, workout, or waiting somewhere. iTunes gift cards are great for me because I can use them to download music, fun apps for my phone, or cool ring tones. Something I probably would not splurge on on my own.
Gift certificate to get my hair or nails done — again, something I probably would not spend the money on on my own. I like to go to walk-in hair places like Master Cuts to get my hair done because it’s hard for me to squeeze in time for myself anyway. $25 would be plenty for me to get a wash and a cut or a simple manicure.
Family jewelry — There are so many clever family oriented jewelry pieces out there now in the etsy shops, origami owl, and more. I’m really loving the metal pendants with your child’s finger print on it and the hand stamped necklaces with your kid’s names on them. You can find there in a lot of different places for a reasonable price.
That’s just a few things off the top of my head that I’d love. Do you have ideas of Mother’s Day present under $25? Write your post and submit it to Nerd Wallet for a chance to win some great prizes: http://www.nerdwallet.com/coupons/contests/
