Last Minute Mother's Day Gift Ideas?

[John]

I need some help. i cannot drive anywhere, and i cannot walk anywhere. i CAN have my dad go get something maybe, or I can(and would prefer) to do something from home.

Any ideas?

The great thing about moms is that they appreciate ANYTHING. Flowers always work especially on a budget. Or get a card and stick a gift card in it and grab a teddy bear. The kind of stuff that you can get at Walmart, but doesn't necessarily scream "I got this last minute gift at Walmart last night."

Or you can make her a card with your handprint on it like from kindergarten. That'll make her cry.
Or if you have ingredients at your house, you can bake her cookies or a cake and write I love you, Mom on them.

You're funny. No matter what I do for my mom it's 'never enough'. She told me I made her cry one year because I got her candy, a homemade card, and flowers, and all of her friend's kids got them more. lololol.

Not to discourage you John ahaha sorry my mom is psycho about Mother's Day. I would assume MOST would like a homemade card... grumble

I tend to just buy everything online :P access to EVERYTHING.

Last Mother's Day (it was in March in the UK), I bought my mother a digital photo frame -- and preloaded it with photos of my dad, who had passed away about five weeks earlier. She really appreciated that. I got her other things as well, just scented candles, pretty things, etc.

Flowers are always a good idea as well. There are so many places online that offer next day delivery, so even if it's a last-minute thing, you're sorted =]

lmao
this is so appropriate.
i'm waking up early to walk to the grocery store when it opens and buy my mom a bunch of tulips
i made the mistake of getting my mom WHITE flowers once ._.


but if she doesn't appreciate me waking up early well fuck she's a ratchet ho



ETA:

xD John ended up making a list of reason why he loves his mom. It started with 100...then went down to 50...then 25...and the final result had 20.

i thought usually with lists (the exception being to do lists)
you add to them
not deduct.
ahahah.

ahahah.

The original idea was to do a list of 100. But he said it was too long and decided 50 was a better number. Eventually he was stuck at 17 so decided having 20 reasons was the best idea

Never got my mom a mother's day present so she never expects one B) My dad usually goes big to make up for it lol.
Always give her a hug and say "I love you mom" anyways, even though I feel like a cheesemeister.

seems legit ^_^
to be fair i couldn't come up with 50 reasons why i love my mom either.
i'd even have to sprinkle some BS in if i had to list 20 reasons ;_;

My mom always sells my gifts or gives them away.

I don't know what the hell to get my mom. All she likes to do is eat... Although last time I saw her she was wearing this mu-mu. Perhaps she now likes looking horrible too!

May I suggest Jenny Craig?

My mom's happy enough to just see us all together again (since my two brothers are not living w/ us anymore) :) I think simple things are fine.

amazon gift card :D

I got my mom a custom coffee mug from Shutterfly.com, it was a "Grandmother" one with pictures of my daughter on it. It was really pretty and surprisingly not cheap looking. Also chocolate and dinner. This was my first real Mother's Day as a mom. :)

I had my 1yr old scribble on some paper with markers. Best/cheapest (grand)mothers day gift EVAR.
