Sure-Fire Mother's Day Gifts -- Last Day For 2-Day Shipping
The Patch Deal Hound sniffed around for the best gifts for mom this Mother's Day — and found some savings in the process.
The clock is running out on a Mother's Day gift. For those of us with the life-saving Amazon Prime, Friday is the last day to get a gift that will arrive on, well, Mother's Day (without having to shell out for fancy one-day shipping).
We've got some gift recommendations below that are sure to be a hit. Especially in a pinch.
We know, because they've all been very popular with our readers and around the internet.
So here, take one last crack at a Mother's Day gift before your time runs out.
Mom does so much more than we give her credit for. She’s earned her “medicine” at the end of a long day (and maybe an extra dose or two).
The Kindle Fire is super popular for its size and simplicity. It's not a big, fat device you have to lug around or one that you have to spend hours just trying to figure out what to use.
And right now, it's down to just $39.99. (A bunch of other Kindles are on sale too.)
Get mom a reader that won't bog her down with any fancy bells or whistles.
We don't make many guarantees, but here's one: You will love this game.
It's simple, fun and always ends up with someone in tears or literally on the floor laughing. It is on the raunchy side, but get mom on her third or fourth drink and you'll be good to go.
Already own it? Check out some of the expansion packs.
