Best, Worst, and Funniest Mother's Day Gifts
Gadget Site, Retrevo.com Offers Unusual Mother's Day Gift Guides
Sunnyvale , Calif. (PRWEB) April 22, 2008 -- Retrevo.com has released their annual Mother's Day Gadget Gift Guides along with a few twists. This year they recognize that hard times may force families to economize on Mother's Day gifts and offer some extra special money saving gift ideas including Bluetooth headsets, digital photo frames, digital cameras, and even some fun novelty gadget gifts. In addition to guides for budget-minded gift givers, Retrevo has put together a fun guide on "What Not To Get Your Mom," that includes hard-to-use universal remotes and some GPS devices. Finally, to round out the package Retrevo put together a funny list of gift ideas especially for Mother-in-laws.
Andrew Eisner, director of content at Retrevo says, "This year, the economy is down, money is tight, and many consumers may not be able to afford to buy their Moms that new sports car she's had her eye on. Fear not, Retrevo has some great recommendations for gadget gifts that Moms will love and will leave gift givers with enough money left over to fill up their gas tanks."
Here's a sample of some of the Mother's Day gift ideas:
Most photo key chains can hold over 50 photos. These tiny digital photo frames make great gifts and cost well under $50. Consumers can load them up with a bunch of family photos and give them to their Moms for Mother's Day.
No one would want their Mom to get a ticket for talking while driving a car so they might want to consider a Bluetooth Headset for Mom. It's a practical gadget that won't break the bank. For a really good headset, expect to spend upwards of $100 for ones like the Aliph Jawbone however, headsets like the Plantronics Voyager 510 get good reviews and cost around $50. Consumers could also get their Mom a stereo headset like the Jabra BT620 so she can listen to tunes or talk on the phone.
For a good novelty gift Retrevo recommends gadgets like the floating rose bath lights. They're not the highest tech gadget but Retrevo just thought these would be cool gifts for Moms that like to hang out in hot tubs or bath tubs. A three pack costs around $12.95. The guide to, "Mother's Day Gifts for Under $50," can be found here.
Andrew Eisner, added, "Moms love gadgets just like everyone else. Gadgets fun to own and can make Mom's life easier. Retrevo knows money is going to be tight this year but for shoppers that can afford a few dollars more, Retrevo offers some picks for Mother's Day gadget gifts that cost around $100." For example, Retrevo says for the techie Moms, with a taste for bling, shoppers should check out the bejeweled USB Flash Drives from Swarovski Designs. A 2GB model costs around $150. More gifts for under $100 are listed in this guide.
Just in case shoppers need advice on gifts to avoid, Retrevo put together a list of gadget gifts not to buy Mom. Retrevo says avoid non-Apple MP3 players despite the fact there are some good alternatives to Apple iPod like Microsoft's Zune and Sandisk's Sansa e260. Apple has such a huge mindshare and cool products Retrevo says, "get Mom a nice colored shuffle, or Nano and throw in an engraved message while you're at it."
In addition, Retrevo warns buyers to avoid poorly rated digital photo frames. Digital Photo Frames are all the rage and can be great Mother's Day gifts. They can be loaded up with pictures and sent to Mom who then just plugs it in and places it on the mantle. There are some very good frames for sale and some with lower ratings that should be avoided. The full list can be found here or shoppers can read all the Mother's Day Reports on Retrevo.com.
The special Mother-in-law Day Gift guide should appeal to the darker side of son-in-laws and daughter-in-laws looking for that "special" gift for their mother-in-laws. This guide offers gems like, " GPS devices guaranteed to get your mother-in-law lost."
