Win Your Own Mother’s Day Gifts!

Oh sure, we’re all hoping for amazing gifts from our spouses/sigoths and children for Mother’s Day. But let’s be realistic – the kids will probably give you flowers picked from your own slaved-over flower beds (now trampled), and the huz may get you a card and maybe a last-minute gift, if he remembers at all.

So why not take charge and enter some of the Mother’s Day contests out there? At least you have a chance at winning exactly what you want. Well, other than time off. I don’t think anyone out there is giving away a day off, even though it would be the most popular contest ever offered.

Here are a few contest ideas to get you started:

  • Kristen is holding a Real Mom Truths contest to win a 4GB iPod Nano, chocolates, and a link to your post on True Mom Confessions. All you have to do is write a post and include a picture with the theme of “Real Moms [insert post topic]”, link back to the contest and leave her a comment telling her you’re entering. Deadline is Friday, May 11 at 10pm EST. Want to know what the iPod Nano is like? Check out my review of it.

  • Parent Bloggers is joining with LightIris to host another writing contest. The topic to write on is “What makes you a mother?” and must be written anytime on Friday, May 11. Rules can be found here, and the grand prize is a $100 Spa Finder gift certificate.

  • Like to read? Rookie Moms is giving away a copy of Three-Martini Family Vacation: A Field Guide to Intrepid Parenting. Enter just by signing up for their monthly newsletter.
  • 5 Minutes For Mom is having a massive Mother’s Day giveaway. Prizes include another 4GB iPod Nano, a mei tai baby carrier, jewelry, a book, and mommy business cards. Check out this link for the complete rules, and add a copy of their button to your post:

  • For us new or soon-to-be moms, Bravado is having a Mother’s Day contest to win an amazing gift pack. Included are two nursing bras, a nursing tank top, a diaper bag, a baby journal, and more. If you’re a nursing mom, enter before May 13.

So that should be enough contests to get you started in finding something you like. Remember that the deadlines are coming up fast. What are you waiting for? Get clicking!

  1. I’ve been entering Mom’s Day contests like a mad-woman, because I know my hubby will not have a clue what to buy, nor will he even try. 🙁

  2. How cool! I wish I had known about this a few days ago. Don’t know if I’ll be able to get anything written before midnight EST. Yargh – wish me luck!

    Hubs keeps asking me what I want for Mothers Day and I don’t know what to tell him. There are so many answers to that question, I can’t even speak.
