Birthday Blues

Tomorrow is my moms 47th birthday and i am having a hell of a time trying to find her a gift...she just moved into a nice appartment and already has everything she needs for it (pictures, statues Ect..) Anyone happen to have any good gift ideas???

What are her interests/tastes? What is your budget? :)

Music, clothes, books, appliances, art, food + dining etc. all good options depending.

$20-30, She loves country music, She really doesnt have a sense of style in clothes. I wanna get her something special, that will last along time. A book can be read once and a cd listen to soo many times, then they end up laying around the house or shoved on a shelf. Too bad they don't make salad shooters anymore :lol2:

Make-up/Shower Gel are also good ones

Go to a local pharmacy or beauty place, and have them make up a nice gift basket of stuff. They'll know exactly whats to put in, and your mother will love it, women love that type of stuff. Or, goto a cooking store, pick out a few dishes, glasses, pots, pans, spices, cook books, and throw them in a basket...they key is the basket..women LOVE baskets for some reason. :screwy:

Hahaha, true. Or get like a Shower gel, Candle, body mosturizer, etc. basket. I have seen this at Bed, Bath and Beyond. Women love 'em. In fact, I got one for my g/f for Christmas.

Two words: Dead skunk.

Get her some candles or potpouri(sp). My mom works at a gift shop and women love that stuff like its water.

Two words: Dead skunk.

BAD suggestion, lol.

Two words: Dead skunk.


Oh yes she will really love that. I think i might get some candles...(one of them huge four wicked candles) so it lasts a while. Just hope she doesn't burn her appartment down lol.

i got my mom and manicure and pedicure for mom's day. or you can get her a swedish massage.

I got her a candle for a present :D..She didn't really want anything expensive anyway. My sister got her a purse and some perfume (that really out did me). The party went great untill my moms boss from work suddenly called up and needed her to come in for a few hours :( that really sucked and ruined everything.
