Last Minute Mother’s Day Gifts
(Little To No Money !)




We’ve all been there. Clearly I have since I am writing this the day before Mother’s Day. If you’re like me, a procrastinator or you’ve simply ran out of ideas, here’s a list of Mother’s Day gifts for when you are pressed for time and have little to no money. 

               

1. Flowers and A Card

This one is very simple and shouldn’t cost more than $10 depending on the flowers that you get (though usually I go to Jewel Osco to grab flowers). If you don’t have any money at all, you can always make a homemade card and origami flowers.




2. Homemade Body Scrub

This one can typically be made with household items. Though you may need to run to your local Dollar Tree or local store to find a mason jar and decorations. The great thing about these is that you can customize them depending on the long term results you’re looking for. 


3. Clean Up or Car Wash

Cleaning up costs $0 (unless you need to buy cleaning products) and a car wash can be done from home or at your local car wash.


4. Cook or Buy Her Favorite Meal 

You know how they say “home is where the heart is” well sometimes food is where the heart is. This one shows that you pay attention to what you mothers likes and that you put thought into your gift. 


5. Dollar Tree

This last option requires a couple bucks but you can easily keep it under $10 or even under $5.
Here’s a few options you may like throw in as a Mother’s Day basket:
       -  face mask 
       -  nail polish
       -  tweezers 
       - cotton balls / swabs
       - candy 
       -  balloon 
       - mason jar
       - silverware or cooking tools
       - artificial flowers
       - makeup (eyebrow pencil, pencil sharpener, mascara, eye shadow, etc.)



6. Drug Store Makeup

This option is a bit more on the pricey side. Walmart, Target, Walgreens, etc. are great places to look. But if your local beauty supply is open, then I would start there because it is a cheaper option. 

                               

7. Plush Blanket 

They have have soft and fluffy blankets at Walmart for around $15-20 dollars. If you’re not sure what she would like, a blanket would definitely make a great gift because it is reusable and will be sure to come in handy.

How To Make Money (Without A Job) 1.) Start a T-Shirt Business In my opinion, you can never go wrong with starting up your own t-shirt line. Almost everybody owns some type of t-shirt or graphic tee so why not turn it into a business? You can come up with your own logo or just make basic tee's that majority would love to wear. Such as "Flawless" or Tupac or classic cartoons with a funny quote. There are many websites out there to help get you started or you can build from home. 2.)  Sell Eyelashes I see almost everyone doing this on social media. They have a link in their bio to their eyelash website. You can search whole sale eyelash companies online that are willing to help people like you make some extra cash. 3.) Sell Your Blood Plasma You don’t make big bucks for this, but it will put some extra cash into your pocket. You can donate your plasma twice a week and earn between $20-$50 each time you do it. Just be sure to eat a WELL BALANCED DIET ...

How To Spend the Day Alone and Unwind 1.) Candles I honestly love the smell of candles and most find them quite relaxing. Turning off the lights to lie back in your bed or couch or.. wherever you are and enjoying the aromas of a candle can be very soothing to the mind. 2.) Favorite music Whether you’re blasting your music through speakers, having your own mini concert in your bathroom, or putting your ear buds in to unwind, music is also another great way to spend the day with yourself. You can actually listen to the lyrics and get a better feel to what messages the artist what’s to relate to you. 3.) Binge watch movies/tv series This tip is my favorite because I’m a sucker for romance movies. I can watch them all day or binge watch Stranger Things while eating food in bed all day. 4.) Do not disturb That’s right! A lot of people are glued to their phones. I mean how can you possibly unwind if you’re still glued to your phone, checking your notifications and...
