Extra tip: What NOT to buy as a Mother’s Day Gift? 

1. Don’t buy a gym membership.
Only give mom a gym membership if she has been talking about joining the gym or asked for that. 

2. Don’t buy items for home or kitchen.
It should be a gift to mom, not to all family.

3. Don’t buy any cleaning device/ cleaning product.
She is not responsible to keep the house clean.
