Mother’s Day is right around the corner…May 8th. You can buy Mom a card, some flowers or take her to dinner (you better make a reservation now!), or you can buy her a lovely gift. Gifts are a great idea because mom will always have that item(s) as a reminder of your appreciation for all she has done for you. However, there are certain gifts that mom may not appreciate on Mother’s Day – like a toaster, vacuum, or pots, and pans. Although she may need new ones, make that a Christmas gift!! But…a new BBQ may be a great idea as that means Dad can do the work (of grilling) and give Mom a break. A beautiful piece of jewelry, a new blouse or sweater, or a beautiful picture frame (with your photo in it of course) are all great ideas. To make her outside an oasis – new outdoor furniture, and of course that BBQ would brighten up her outdoor space.
If you have any advertisers selling any items that would be a “true” gift to Mom (and not a gift that Mom can use to make everyone else’s life better), then now is the time to advertise them and utilize that co-op money they may have available. Listed below are just a few of the brands in the Co>Op Connect database that pertain to gift-giving.
