Mother's Day
Wishing All Moms a Very Happy Mother's Day!
To all the moms out there, geeksugar hopes that you have a special (and relaxing!) day that's spent with those you love.
We may not be moms ourselves, but we do believe that being a mom is one of the hardest jobs there is, so thanks for your unconditional love, support, and for never questioning a geek's gadget addiction!
And just in case you're still looking for a fun ecard to send your mom or you are in need of an inexpensive way to chat with her, you can check out all of my Mother's Day coverage here.
geeksugar's Mother's Day Roundup
You've only got two more days until Mother's Day, and hopefully you've got your gift, whatever it is, all ready to go. Procrastinating? Check out some cool things, free and not free, that you can give your mom this Sunday.
Cheap Ways to Chat With Mom on Sunday
Sometimes the best things in life are free, so if you won't be able to see your mom this Mother's Day, why not surprise her with a phone call or video chat session? Even if you can't be with her, she'll still be able to hear your voice and see your smiling face. And just think, you won't be spending a small fortune on a gift she'll never use anyway!
Buy Mom a TiVo and She'll Get Six Months of Free Netflix
Now that I've equipped you with all the tools you need when shopping for your tech savvy mama, I have to make sure I keep you abreast of all the tech deals and promotions happening this week as well!
Just in time for Mother's Day (and continuing on for the rest of the month), whenever you buy a TiVo, you will also receive six months free of Netflix! Considering basic plans run from $5 to $17 (the most popular plan being the $14 a month, 2 DVDs out at a time), mom can save around $84, and watch all her favorite movies over and over again.
Website of the Day: Card Funk
You think your mom is Super Woman, so why not show her how you feel with an animated card this Mother's Day from Card Funk? Upload a few of your best pics into the photo editor, including those of your mom, dad, and brother or sister, and watch her go! I love how TeamSugar member mharvent made Angelina Jolie into a Super Mom, with Brad, Pax, and Zahara as costars!

Target Rolls Out the Mother's Day Gadget Deals
If my must-have list for May didn't rock your world, you may just want to head to your nearest Target on Sunday because they are kicking off a big sale on some sweet gadgets.
You'll find the new lime-green DS Lite Bundle for $139, the Kodak Zi6 Camcorder on sale for $129 (regularly $159), the TomTom One 140 GPS for only $146, and more. And for some more incentive, if you purchase an iPod, the Kodak camcorder, or the GPS device, you'll receive a Soap and Glory bath set (which is valued at $25).
Make Mom a Sweet Photo Book in iPhoto — But Do It Today!
Although it's still another few weeks away, it's never too early to start thinking about what to do for mom on Mother's Day. This is especially true if you were considering making her a custom photo book using iPhoto's printing services — you have until tomorrow to whip it up, place your order, and have it in your hands (and all wrapped up) by May 10.
If you've never used Apple's printing services before, I suggest you give it a try.
