If there is anything I am good at, it’s procrastination. I’m always scrambling at the last minute to find gift ideas for every occasion. And here we are again since Mother’s Day is a week away and I am giftless (as usual). So if you are like me and can’t think of anything or your mom already has everything, check out some of my last minute Mother’s Day gift ideas below! Also, all of these ideas are on the Ibotta app which means you can earn cash back for yourself while you shop for mom all at the same time!

Buy Mom Flowers and Chocolate!
Moms love flowers, and Mother’s Day is a great time to send all the moms a special bouquet of her favorite flowers. 1-800-FLOWERS has tons of options on their site to choose from. They have roses, orchids, lilies, and even succulent gardens! Their site also partners with Shari’s Berries and Cheryl’s cookies to send chocolate covered strawberries and cookies to all those moms with a sweet tooth. Most items have very quick delivery options which is perfect for us procrastinators! 1-800-FLOWERS even offers 2% cash back on purchases when you click through the Ibotta app.
Send Mom A Meal!
Unfortunately, moms are often stuck cooking dinner even on Mother’s Day. This year send mom a meal already cooked from her favorite restaurant through UberEats, GrubHub or DoorDash. All three meal delivery services are on Ibotta and offer cash back! If you don’t know what your mom would order, send her a gift card to one of these apps so she can choose herself. Add a bottle of wine and voila, you got yourself a great Mother’s Day gift!
Cook Mom A Meal!
If you are feeling adventurous, dive in and cook your mom her favorite meal. Don’t let her help! (You know she is going to try!) Find her favorite recipe and get to work in the kitchen. Bonus points if you find her favorite recipe that her mom used to make. Seriously, most moms have to do the cooking every night so to have someone else cook for her is such a treat. She will love the sentiment and thought you put in too. Don’t forget to check out the Ibotta app for any grocery items you may need and earn some cash back while making mom happy!
Take Mom Out to Eat!
When all else fails, take your mom out to eat to her favorite restaurant. If you aren’t ready to eat out at restaurants quite yet, buy her a gift card! Not everyone can cook and that’s ok! Mom will appreciate any time she gets to spend with her kids, especially when they are buying. There are numerous restaurants on Ibotta that you can purchase gift cards for and earn cash back for yourself. There are also offers for certain items at restaurants, such as cocktails, that earn some major cash back.
Don’t Forget the Card!
Whatever gift you choose, do NOT forget the card! Moms love to be sappy and read about how much they are loved and needed. Words can mean so much so take the extra time to find that special card and write a heartfelt message to mom this year. Don’t forget to use Ibotta and get $2.00 off any Hallmark card this Mother’s Day!
Hopefully these last minute Mother’s Day gift ideas were helpful. Most moms don’t ask for much on Mother’s Day, just spending time with loved ones and being pampered is more than any mom can ask for. Spoil those moms this year, the deserve it!
