PriceGrabber.co.uk(R), a part of Experian, announces its list of smart
Mother's Day shopping techniques to help shoppers express their love for Mum
without emptying their bank accounts.
- Cut the cost of sweet treats - Make homemade chocolates, cupcakes or biscuits instead of buying gourmet chocolate truffles. - Comparison-shop for gifts - Comparison-shop for Mother's Day gifts like perfume, clothing, accessories and books on sites like PriceGrabber.co.uk (www.pricegrabber.co.uk/), which can help Save consumers an average of 20 percent to 30 percent. - Presentation is everything - Take the time to decorate gifts with ribbon and stylish tissue paper. Chic gift-wrap accessories can help an inexpensive gift look more luxurious. - Card creativity - Make your own Mother's Day card, or use a free e-card Website to tell Mum just how special she is. Homemade cards are more personal and are guaranteed a special place on her shelf. - Avoid restaurant lunch mayhem - Cook a special Mother's Day lunch at home, away from the crowds and inflated restaurant prices. There's no need to worry about a reservation when dining at home. - Set a price alert - PriceGrabber.co.uk allows consumers to set a price alert (tiny.cc/0fhgv) that sends them an email notification when the item drops to their desired price. This is especially helpful for big-ticket Mother's Day gifts like electronics (electronics.pricegrabber.co.uk/). - Check for coupons online - PriceGrabber's coupon category (www.pricegrabber.co.uk/home_coupons.php) helps shoppers find increased discounts on their favorite Mother's Day gifts by allowing them to search coupons by category. - Gifts from the heart, not from the purse - Tell mum how much she means with a poem or heartfelt note.
