As the title states, what did you get your mother, wife etc for mothers day?
For my mom I made a donation in her name to the lung foundation.
My gf, the love of my life wanted a table saw, yes a table saw for mothers day. So I got her one but put 2 dozen roses inside the box.
You have to love a woman that wants power tools for presents lol.

A bunch of roses and this cool little key chain thing that you can store your digital photos on. And then you can watch the photos in a slideshow on this little 3" screen. So I put a couple of pics of my and the family on it. :11:

$50 and a junk load of lottery tickets
LOL...you need to hint harder...
In fact, I'd say hinting might not even work with men...I had to show hubby the picture of the slop bucket in the Lee Valley catalogue - and even then he called me to double check he was getting the right one...

I got my mom a dozen roses...yellow ones with red tips, mixed in with some decorative red berries...they're really pretty! Also got her a gift certificate for a spa manicure and pedicure. She's a nurse and is on her feet all day long, so I figured a nice foot treatment would be nice and of course can't neglect the finger nails either. lol

Just a card for each of our moms... They know we're broke and they don't need anything lol.
...my day got better...the crew went out for dinner without me...it was a belated birthday dinner for my 13 year old and not a mother's day dinner...
I wasn't feeling very well...so I stayed home...
But apparently, they were giving out FREE cards for Mom in the men's room and FREE kalanchoes...
So guess what I got? :hmm3grin2orange:

I gave my mum a photo frame I bought at underwater world, and I called her. I don't get anything for anyone else, because they are not my mum!

I gave mine one of those 'Life is good' T-shirts, lol. She is a fan of those.
The logo was a cup of coffee, with the words 'start me up' under it. It made her lol.
