Giving mom a bouquet of flowers, a sweet card and maybe some breakfast in bed is usually what goes down come Mother's Day. But do you also plan to give your mom a gift on top of all that? Or is that way too much consumerism for you to handle? Share your Mother's Day plans in the comments section below!

Answer 1

Already bought cards for my mother as well as both of my grandmothers. Maybe I'll top that with a box of chocolate, although I'm hesitant about this since my mother is too obsessed about her weight.

Answer 2

We will be giving her breakfast and cards. Plus I bought her a shirt that she has had her eyes on for a bit.

Answer 3

I always buy my mother a mother's day gift. I'm taking her to the mall this week
so she can pick out whatever she needs. I spoil my mother.

Answer 4

I didn't give my mother a gift even when she was alive. My wife will receive gifts from her ******** from a previous marriage, but not from me.

Answer 5

She's dead.

Answer 6

already did. I bought her something with diamonds in it

Answer 7

I'm making over $7k a month working part time. I kept hearing other people tell me how much money they can make online so I decided to look into it. Well, it was all true and has totally changed my life. This is what I do... http://www.jobs-review.com

Answer 8

If you make over $7K a month, why don't you use some of that sweet dollar to buy your mom a mothers day gift?

Answer 9

Normally for my mom I get her a nice Birthday/Christmas present (her birthday is on xmas) but I get her a fantastic Mother's Day gift. The last few years though I've run out of ideas so I've called her. This year I'm going to stop by her house on Saturday since she'll be gone all Sunday and I'll hang out for an hour or two, give her some flowers.

Answer 10

For my wife, my mom's dead. Got her the S-6 phone and a new 2015 Nissan (straight off the line, with only 11 miles on it); we're also taking her out for Japanese food on that day. That ought to make her day and score me some points.

Answer 11

I wish, my Mum passed away 34 years ago

Answer 12

Nice husband you are!

Answer 13

Mom died long ago.

Answer 14

yep

Answer 15

My mother is a terrible person who should rot in jail and hopefully will rot there. I'll be spending my day with my family

Answer 16

My siblings and I already celebrated it.

Answer 17

My mother is by far the person I have the most resentment toward in life, for she is mainly responsible for forcing the unfortunate state of existence upon me. I'll forever resent her sorry *** for forcing life on me and thus subjecting me to the pain and suffering of existence.

Well, then again. I might send her a copy of David Benatar's Better Never to Have Been: The Harm of Coming into Existence just to slap her in her sorry face.

Answer 18

I will be buying my mother some flowers and taking them down to the grave site and spend some time with her and dad next Sunday. Tis something I have not done in a couple of years and it weighs upon mine heart heavily...

Answer 19

But I will be putting flowers on her grave.

Answer 20

I wish I could.

I use to purchase a gift every year for both my mom and my grandmother, but they are now both deceased. =(

Answer 21

Hollidays are a bunch of bull. Stop celebrating them and stop wasting your money.

Answer 22

MY MOTHER IS DEAD!!!

Answer 23

My mom deserves a kick in the ***

Answer 24

This is my third mama's day without my mama...in fact I haven't celebrated Mother's Day for myself in two years...

Answer 25

I am making one. I usually do anymore as my mom's only real interest (outside of handmade) now is expensive horse stuff I cannot afford. I prefer things with a personal touch anyways

Answer 26

..................... " ................... my mother has been deceased, many years ago............ " .................

Answer 27

I will take flowers to my Mom's gravesite.

Answer 28

Well, I would if I still had one. Considering all the crap your mom puts up with to raise you, I would highly encourage all of you to do so.

Answer 29

Unless you MAKE it, not buy it.

Answer 30

Answer 38

I get paid over $87 per hour working from home with 2 kids at home. I never thought I'd be able to do it but my best friend earns over 10k a month doing this and she convinced me to try. The potential with this is *******. Heres what I've been doing,
