Many probably don’t feel good about seeing the word affordable next to Mother’s Day. It strikes a negative chord because we want to buy our mom the best and not think about money.

Mother’s Day Savings Strategies
As with most seasonal events and holidays, Mother’s Day also make for a good general shopping time because most retailers creatively find a way to link this day to one or more of their products or product categories via a special discount offer, general Mother’s Day sale, or even a mom-themed coupon code. Personally, I like to shop around holidays because of these extra discount opportunities.
There’s another way to look at holidays and seasonal shopping that can save you money. For many retailers, certain seasonal events like Mother’s Day represent a slow time for them. For example, hunting and fishing stores that traditionally cater more more to men might have to be a little more innovative to attract buyers right now. They might, though, use Mother’s Day promotions to reach out to men who are shopping online for Mother’s Day gifts. It’s possible they can distract these men long enough for a quick sale and so they often have special discounts and promotions — in this case, they might list their spring fishing gear on sale or closeout winter items at a big discount to attract attention.
Unique Mother’s Day Gift Ideas
For those who are looking for something unique for their mother you might want to include designer clothing, tech products, gardening gear, and natural/organic items if your mother fits into one of these interest areas. For moms who “have everything,” many enjoy gift of the month club memberships with selections for chocolate, flowers, coffee, wine, fruit, and so much more.
