What NOT To Get Mom For Mother’s Day
May 11, 2012 9:00 AM 
Mother’s Day is this Sunday and if are stumped as to what mom may want, well, we may not have any bright ideas but we do–thanks to Kaboodle.com– have a list of things to avoid. This is, after all, her special day and she should be rewarded with something thoughtful and not one of these.
Gag Gifts
Even if Mom has an awesome sense of humor, she’s not likely to find a gift of bacon-flavored frosting or any other gag present all that funny. All she does for you is no joke, so don’t treat the holiday as though it is.
Diet Books
Want to alienate your loving mother and ensure that you are left on your own to manage all the daily chores she usually covers on your behalf? Give her a diet book such as this one and you’ll do exactly that.
Wrinkle Cream
Mother’s Day is an occasion to celebrate her just the way she is. Skip the youth serums and other hints at cosmetic improvement and you’ll remind her she’s loved–laugh lines and all.

OK, this may not be helpful in deciding what the perfect gift would be but, hopefully, it will help avoid pitfalls.
