I have no help for you Joe.
I'm stuck in my own rut too! Not only is Sunday Mothers Day, it is my birthday as well, so what can I do/buy/get that would be good for the wife, but not too good as to send us into a financial tailspin.

How about something both of you want like a new DVD player or digital camera? Fun to shop together for things like that.

Mother's Day Shopping Tip: "Girls Gone Wild featuring Snoop Dog" does NOT make a good Mother's Day gift. Thanks for the great advice, joel.

Mother's Day can be a real downer if you've just lost your mom....i'd much rather have a five-minute conversation with her than anything my kids might feel they have to buy me.
i'd just give her a shoulder joe. as if you haven't already

I am not sure anyone would buy a "Riff Raffers gone wild". It would probably end up on the discout rack at Value City 
I don't think I am very "camera friendly"

Since she can't really get what she wants, settle for the next best thing: get her supah cheryled. Then bust out DJ, as laughter is the best medicine.

Who made up that lame-o rule? I love things with plugs! One of my all-time favorite Mudder's Day gifts was a Craftsman Wet/Dry vac. Still have it and still use it!
