How much should I spend on Mother's Day?
There is no set amount you should spend on Mother’s Day - it all depends on your personal budget. Don’t push yourself to spend more than you can afford, many people (especially mother’s!) appreciate a thoughtful gift or gesture rather than expense. If you’re on an especially tight budget, DIY gifts are a great way to make the day special without overspending. Make a meaningful note, card, cook a home cooked meal - what matters most is the gesture not the price.
