And we want to treat them right on Mother’s Day and show them that they’re just the best.
We can’t think of a better way of showing our mums we care than treating them to a spa day or even a weekend.
Think of it as pure pampering.
And of course, we’d hate to think of our mums being lonely – which means us girlies get to go too, surely?
It’s what being a good daughter is all about.
But if we can get a wee bargain while we’re doing it, all the better.
And that’s why it’s worth keeping an eye on websites such as groupon.co.uk and itison.com and picking yourself up a cheeky, money-saving deal.
Book at the right time and you can really save a small fortune.
It’s not being mean.
Bag yourself a bargain and you can go more than once, or buy Mum an extra wee something.
At the moment, Groupon has several great deals, including a spa day at the four-star Moness Resort, just outside Aberfeldy.
It really is a little touch of luxury and for £39 per person, Mum can enjoy two spa treatments and a two-course lunch.
The price for two of you is £75.
Or save up to 64% with a choice of two treatments at the Ocean Rooms in Glasgow.
Remember to shop around. If you can find a deal that also includes afternoon tea or a meal, so much the better.
And if you want to stay over, there are bargains to be had there, too.
We all lead such busy lives these days that most of us probably feel that we don’t see enough of our lovely wee mums.
So isn’t a spa break a much nicer way of telling Mum how much you love her rather than a box of chocs and a card?
You know it is.
So what are you waiting for?
