Mothers are our heroes. They give us strength and support, and we know they love us unconditionally no matter how many mistakes we’ve made. With Mother’s Day coming up on the 10th of May, the pressure of getting your mum the perfect present might be giving you a headache: you want her to love it (maybe even cry tears of joy), but you can’t afford anything too pricey.
Fret not, as we’ve come up with 10 unique gifts for your beloved mums — all below $100.
1. The Photorito Lens Wrap (From $26)
Is mum a burrito and photography lover? This will give her the best of both worlds, protecting her camera lens and reminding her of her favourite dish at the same time. It might make her a little hungry, though.
2. Iron Man USB Flash Drive (From $34)
You’ll never go wrong with Iron Man-themed tech creations. Let mum know she’s an Iron Lady herself with this unique storage device.
3. Alpinestones Marble Wood iPhone 6 Case ($14.50)
This is perfect for the mum who’s an Apple fan. No, scrap that: whether your mum uses an iPhone, Samsung Note/Galaxy or Xiaomi, you can get her this beautiful phone case, because they’re all available for pre-order via the Alpinestones site.
4. Digital Measuring Cup And Scale (From $28)
Heaven forbid you buy your mum this measuring cup, only to get her to bake you your favourite sweet treats. No, this one’s for the mum who truly loves baking — to make her Mother’s Day even sweeter, set aside a day for the two of you to spend some quality time together, while baking up a storm.
5. Constellation Heat Changing Mug (From $19)
Whether your mum likes her coffee iced or steaming hot, let her enjoy the beauty of the night sky while she sips on her favourite drink.
6. Pizza Box Oven (From $73)

7. Gun Alarm Clock (From $29)
With so much on her plate, stress is something that all mums can relate to. Help her de-stress by taking a shot at this alarm clock with its wireless gun; it even has 2 game modes for her to get some practice in before the big wake up.
8. Kikkerland Magnetic Decision Maker (From $15)
Our mums always seem to be busy with something, and with so many decisions to make on a day-to-day basis, it can get pretty tiring for them at times. This decision maker should help.
9. The First Global Chocolate Foldable Keyboard (From $66)
This is a fit-into-your-pocket type of keyboard that works with both iOS and Android devices. It’s perfect for mums who are always on the go, or the ones who simply love travelling.
