What Do You Do Wednesday?

Tips like these helped us pay off $127K in debt. You can read our story in Slaying the Debt Dragon: How One Family Conquered Their Money Monster and Found an Inspired Happily Ever After.

April 29, 2009 By Cherie Lowe

Today on What Do You Do Wednesday, how do you celebrate your mom.  Mother’s Day will be here in a about a week and a half and we’re beginning to think about the best ways to celebrate the Queen Mothers in our life.  Luckily, there are a few ways that you can give a gift to your mom without spending a dime (or very little).  Won’t she be proud of your thriftiness (that is if you choose to tell her).

  • A few weeks ago Hallmark ran a promotion where you could create a free card and they would even ship it for you.  I posted about it here .  Guess what?  In honor of Mother’s Day, they’re doing it again.  Use the code: CARD4MOM and be sure to get it finished by May 1st (that’s Friday folks!) so that mom gets it in time.  Although, last time it only took 2 days for my card that I made for the King to come.  Thanks Lady Andrea!
  • JC Penney has a $10/$10 promotion online in to help you buy a gift for mom.  The item in your cart has to equal $10 to qualify.  You can have it shipped to the store or directly to dear ‘ole ma.  Use the code: MOMSGR8 Thanks Thrifty Mama !
  • Sargentto has a recipe brochure filled with brunch recipes so that you can fix your mama breakfast in bed.  It’s a pdf and it takes a couple of seconds to load so be patient.  Thanks Money Saving Mom !
  • e.l.f. cosmetics is offering 50% select gift sets (makes the Sweet Glossy Lip Glass set $1.50!) for Mom AND including a free I *heart* Mom eye shadow and card with every purchase.  Use the code 50GIFTS.  Maybe you might need to give yourself a little Mother’s Day Gift?  There are all sorts of other promotions going on on e.l.f. right now.  Be sure you elect not to receive their e-mails if you place an order.  They send daily e-mails (sometimes it feels like more!).
So what about you?  What do you do to celebrate your mama (or your own motherhood) without breaking the bank?
