I hate figuring out what to buy for Mother's Day

[DurocShark]

I can never think of anything good to buy for Mother's Day (or any other holiday, for that matter).

I bought my mom a bunch of DVD's of old black and white TV shows that were at the 99c store.

My wife is getting a 12" LCD. She's been bugging for a really small LCD (like the Webplayer she used to use). I couldn't find any active matrix ones smaller than 15", at least not for less than an arm and a leg, so I paid too much for this DSTN one off eBay.

Any other oddball stuff (besides paying off $17k in debt... That just plain rocked)?

I usually get out of the whole present thing by cooking Mom dinner. I get her a card, and cook her dinner when she comes up to visit.

can't go wrong w/ something from Bath and Body Works.

I like live plants, to be planted outside and return for years of beauty Any luxury item is good too, perfume, bath/body stuff as mentioned above, chocolates, jewelry.

Card + some kind of plant = win

Tell her you love her & leave it at that.

She would like any thing, mostly because you remembered.

But plants are good. If she can't plant them outside, get one of those pots with a mix of colorful flowers in it.

Heres to Moms!
