Whether you’re shopping for your mom, mother-in-law, wife or some other important mother in your life, it can present some challenges. Time’s running out! Mother’s Day is Sunday and if you’re still struggling with your gift, this might help you decide what to get…or rather, what NOT to get!
What do mom’s really want? Hate to tell you, it’s NOT a “World’s Best Mom” coffee mug…or bath bombs, for the millionth time.
According to 2,500 moms, in a survey on Mixbook, THIS is what the moms in your life really want:
- Handmade gifts (27.5%)
- Special experiences (21%)
- Handwritten letters or cards (16%)
- A day off from responsibilities (10%)
On the other hand, these are the worst Mother’s Day gifts:
- Weight loss products (30%)
- Cleaning supplies (26%)
- “How to” cookbooks (14%)
- Unsolicited self-help books (12%)
- Leftover holiday candy (7%)
- Gas station flowers (5%)
- Homemade coupon books (3%)
- Gift cards to stores YOU like (2%)
