Mother's Day Gifts for a Mom who has Everything!

I have a mother who has everything! Getting a  gift for a mom who has everything can be a challenging task. Don’t stress yourself out. Listed below are a few "do's" and "don't" that should help make your gift giving process a little easier. And remember, no matter what you buy, it’s the thought that counts!

Do buy something that is personal and within your budget. Your mom or wife will not feel as good about your gift if they know you over-extended yourself to give it. The most valuable gifts come from the heart not the wallet. Many things fall within the personal and inexpensive category:

• Books -- find your woman's favorite topic and buy a book. Do a little back door research to find out what she likes. Then help her find the time to read it.
• DVDs Or CDs -- find your woman's favorite movies or music genre and buy them a disc! They will love getting a gift of one of their admired artists. Or give them something to to expand their library.

• Event Tickets -- find the recipient's favorite band, team or musical and get them tickets. Women often times will not find the time or money to do this for themselves -- it's a luxury.
• Sports Memoribilia -- any mom or girlfriend has a favorite sports team -- especially if you are a sports fanatic. Find their favorite team and give them a memento (i.e., cup, travel mug, candy dish, etc.). Once again it is a luxury they wouldn't normally purchase for themselves.

Don't buy anything related to the everyday and mundane.  You mom or wife doesnot want to be reminded of things they have to do for a regular routine.  They want something different. Also do not buy something that is imtimately personal. Your woman knows what she likes for herself in terms of jewelry, perfume, clothing, etc. Things that fall under the categories of mundane and too personal are listed below:

• Edibles -- while giving chocolates, cookies, cheese baskets and wine may seem like a good idea people have dietary issues or allergies that may not make the gift practical for them.
• Perfumes -- most of the women I know have 1-2 parfums and powders that they perfer. You may not know what they are. Buying something different may leave it in the giftbox for a long time.
• Jewelry -- once again every woman has a preference -- gold, silver, rings, bracelets.  There may also be health and religious restrictions that limits a woman's enjoyment of jewelry -- i.e., arthritis.
• Flowers -- while they look great in the picture many baskets and bouquets are not as advertised when delivered. Additionally, like food, flower alllergies can once again be an issue.
