Get her something, anything. The thought of buying something for 5 bucks (some perfume) is better than $5.

I bought my mom an outrageously expensive jewelery box. It's japanese and made from 12 different kinds of trees sliced paper thin and glued together to make geometrical designs.

I ended up getting my mom one of those gift baskets from the body shop. (just going in that store gave me the chills)

Theres a bunch of soaps and crap in there that will make her happy, she loves that junk. Also got her some chocolates.

She will be happy, and that is what counts.

The thing that I’ve always found about my mum is that whatever I give her she is always happy. The amount spent doesn’t make a difference, it’s always the thought that counts.

Very True. Infact when I purchase something expensive for her, she seems a bit sad that I spent all that money on her.

In the end, It's the thought that counts!

lol you gotta love the presents you buy your parents that you end up using more then them, haha that's been done

Last year i got my mom this cool massager thingy, which she rarely uses.... i'm an idiot, cause she has her own masseur (sp) that she goes to every like 2 weeks or month, somethin like that

so analyze the situation, make sure the gifts actually gunna be useful for you mom, lol
jewellery's always good, but if you don't have alotta cash than don't do that, cause your mom's not gunna wear cheap jewellery (atleast not enjoy it)

well in my opinion make sure that it's very useful indeed and it's somethin that she's wanted for a while. my mom wanted a food processor once, and i got it for her for christmas one year. it was a good gift she told me and she uses it often, but the downside of the whole thing is that she kind of got what i call "food processor madness disease" like really attached to that thing...i once walked into the kitchen to get something to drink, and she was there using the fod processor. She looks at me and says "HogieGT-R (not my real name) listen to this..she pushes the button and you can hear the blade spinning and whatnot...she looks at me and goes "isn't this a beautiful thing?" and has a crap eating grin on her face.....to this day i thik that i should have gotten her perfume.....

I normally buy my mom $150 spa/day packages at Nordstroms. She'll get a facial, massage, spa, etc....

This year I bought her a Raclette. Cost $80, not too bad.

Once I told my mom I'd buy her whatever she wants, we just go to the store and she picks it, but she only chose a pair of $40 tennis shoes. I was kinda bummed I couldn't buy her more, but she was happy either way.
