Austin, TX (PRWEB) April 29, 2015 -- According to a recent Offers.com survey, U.S. mothers would prefer to be pampered with a massage this Mother's Day instead of receiving a gift card or jewelry.
"Our survey shows that people will spend close to $120 on Mother's Day this year," said Offers.com savings expert Howard Schaffer. “Since moms prefer time at spas and restaurants, consumers should prioritize their spending on these types of gifts."
