For those who are displaced from their families on Mother’s Day, there are still several ways for mothers without their children to feel special, and while these gifts will not replace one’s presence, they will let mothers know that they are being thought of on their special day.
Moms Love Flowers, Especially on Mother’s Day
The price of flowers may rise on certain days of the year, like Valentine’s and Mother’s Day, but does the small increase in price really matter? For those who say it does, it is important to measure the marginal (additional) cost to the marginal utility (pleasure) for this purchase being made.
Chocolate and Other Candy Can Make Mother’s Day Special
For those who have mothers with a sweet tooth, there are some great candies, cookies, and chocolates that will go a long way.
The best way to go on a basket with sweets is to look for high end gift baskets, or specialty shoppes that cannot be found in many cities. This sort of gift, like flowers, can be stretched out over a week, serving as a continuous reminder to mothers just how much their children are thinking of them. Of course, more health-conscious moms may not be so keen on sweet treats.
Fruit Bouquets Are Healthy and Delicious
Anyone who has had a fruit bouquet knows that they are fantastic, sometimes leaving those who receive them to wonder just how the person who arranged it managed to obtain such great stock out of season. For those not familiar, a fruit bouquet is an arrangement of fruit made to look like flowers. Mothers who receive them will not only get the beauty of floral decor, but also the sweet juiciness of great fruit.
