Shoppers are forecasted to spend a million hours shopping online for gifts. Time is very valuable. So is money. Coupon & savings expert Jon Lal (founder of BeFrugal.com) has these money and time saving Mother’s Day gift ideas:
· Send her electronic love. Ecards are free and can be personalized then scheduled to send on Mother’s Day.
· Treat her to sweets. Dining out does not have to be expensive if you go out just for dessert!
· Give your time. Consider doing something she will appreciate like chores, mowing the lawn, or something else.
