If you’re having trouble doing just that, we’re ready to step in with handpicked suggestions that you can count on in the realms of tech, home goods and much more. 

Whether you’re buying for a mom who loves gadgets, a grandmother who wants to start working on her fitness, or someone who’s like a mom to you and who would absolutely love some flowers, we’ve got you covered. But we also understand that budgets are tight. You’d give Mom the world if you could, but sometimes your wallet just won’t allow that.

Below, shop our picks for gifts for all types of moms, all at an affordable price point.


The best Mother’s Day gifts under $100 


Best Mother’s Day gift for moms who need to relax: Ugg Scuffette II slipper: $95

Ugg Scuffette II Slipper

Give Mom the gift of impossibly cozy slippers. She’s probably been wearing the same old worn out pair for ages, so now it’s time for an upgrade. These 100% sheepskin slippers bear the iconic Ugg logo on one side and come with a strip of cozy fur on the edges. 

The soft suede is a welcome companion on cold, blustery days, and the rubber sole on the bottom makes these slippers a good prospect for grabbing the mail. If Mom needs to relax and chill out before she starts her day, these slippers should be able to help put her at ease. 


Best Mother’s Day gift for moms who need their coffee: Le Creuset Stoneware London mugs (6-Pack): $80

If the first thing your mom does each morning is stumble over to the coffee pot, give her a reason to get excited about her morning cup of joe. Give her the gift of these gorgeous Le Creuset coffee mugs in every color of the rainbow.

The brand’s iconic nonstick glazed surface looks gorgeous in shades of red, orange, yellow, blue and purple, with a subtle ombre effect on each mug. Mom can enjoy her coffee in style every morning, and she can also finally say she owns a Le Creuset piece, while you know you didn’t have to take out a second mortgage for a six-piece set, at that. 


Best Mother’s Day gift for moms who need their beauty rest: Blissy silk pillowcase: $59

Blissy Silk Pillowcase

Silk pillowcases aren’t just an everyday luxury that can help you drift off to sleep. They’re also the perfect way to wake up looking and feeling rested. If Mom cherishes her sleep, you can’t go wrong by giving her a way to appreciate its restorative powers even more. 

Sleeping with a silk pillowcase means waking up with less bedhead or tangles and dryness. It also helps to maintain hair’s natural oils. This pillowcase will help Mom appreciate all the sleep she can get with all the added benefits, too. There are a few different colors to choose from, and Mom will love the softness against her head as she slips into a restful sleep. 


Best Mother’s Day gift for moms who want simple tech: Amazon Fire 7 tablet: $60

Amazon Fire 7 Tablet

Amazon


Does your mother like to use technology, but is a bit of a novice at it? Does she spend time shopping online, watching TikTok clips, or catching up with her favorite shows on her phone? Give her a bigger screen on an uncomplicated piece of tech so she can do all of those fun things and then some on an affordable, snappy tablet.

The Amazon Fire 7 tablet is a great starter tablet that offers a 7-inch touchscreen, a 2GB of RAM, a quad-core processor, and 16GB of storage to hold books, shows and movies Mom might want to download. 

It’s locked to Amazon’s app ecosystem, but it still uses apps like Netflix, Spotify, and Kindle, so she can do just about everything she would on her phone – only with a larger screen, and a potentially better operating system, if she’s using an old phone.

It’s also a great way for Mom to keep in touch via video calls, if that’s something she’s into. 


Best Mother’s Day gift for moms on a fitness journey: Fitbit Inspire 2: $72

Fitbit Inspire 2

Amazon


Whether your mom is just getting started with counting steps or she keeps a watchful eye on how much activity she gets in a day, help her with this affordable fitness tracker. 

This simple and lightweight tracker helps optimize workouts by offering a readiness rating. It can help Mom figure out if she should proceed with working out for the day or do some recovering instead. It also helps by tracking active zone minutes spent at the target heart rate for maximum exercise efficiency.

It has more than 20 exercise modes, 24/7 heart-rate tracking, and sleep tracking as well. The sleep tracking goes toward establishing a sleep score. Mom can even wear this gadget while swimming, as it’s water resistant up to 50 meters.

If Mom wants even more features, there’s an optional Fitbit Premium service to subscribe to. This Fitbit Inspire 2 comes with a free year so she can try it out first. 


Best Mother’s Day gift for moms who love to cook: Carote 11-Piece cookware set with detachable handle: $80

Carote 11-Piece Cookware Set with Detachable Handle

Amazon


If your mother is a whiz in the kitchen, make sure she has everything she needs to make delicious meals. This Carote cookware set is a gorgeous and efficient set that makes cleanup a breeze and cooking ridiculously simple.

These stacking pans save space since their handles detach, meaning you can swap handles out between pans if one gets lost, and store all of them in one place. They’re made of granite, with practically no cleanup thanks to its nonstick properties.

This set comes with fry pans, saucepans, a saute pan, two removable handles, silicone pot lids, and regular storage lids. It’s time for Mom to toss out that old cookware and enjoy the convenience of this set instead. 


Best Mother’s Day gift for moms who are serious about skincare: Tatcha The Starter Ritual Set: $74

Tatcha The Starter Ritual Set

Amazon


Does Mom make sure to follow a skincare routine day and night? Maybe she’s thinking about establishing one. Either way, she can’t go wrong with this Tatcha starter set. It’s everything anyone needs to start using Tatcha’s skin-loving line, all meant to help nourish and hydrate skin to help reduce the effect of aging, tiredness, and more.

It comes with five miniature versions of Tatcha’s best-selling products, including The Camellia Cleansing Oil, The Rice Polish Classic, The Silk Peony eye cream, The Essence serum, and The Silk Cream moisturizer. Mom can get started using her new routine right away, and all she has to do when it’s gone is repurchase the items in this set. Easy-peasy!


Best Mother’s Day gift for moms who love music: Apple AirPods (2nd Gen): $89

Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen)

Apple


If your mom can’t get enough of her favorite artist, give her some earbuds that truly bump: the second-generation Apple AirPods. They aren’t the newest model, but they’re still capable of bringing the house down when listening solo.

With a wireless charging case that serves up 24 hours of battery life, one-tap setup for Apple devices, and absolutely excellent sound, it’s not hard to see why AirPods are such a universally loved pair of earbuds. Your mom will love how easy they are to set up and charge, as well as how great her favorite songs sound on them.

For under $100, this is an easy must-buy for Mom, so she can get her Taylor Swift listening party on as soon as humanly possible.


Best Mother’s Day gift for moms with a green thumb: Best Choice Products metal raised garden bed: $90

Best Choice Products Metal Raised Garden Bed

Amazon


Mom loves to garden, so make sure she has prime real estate for all her plants to grow in. Sure, Dad might have carved out a space in the yard for a perennial or two, but if your mother has growing herbs or veggies in mind, make sure she’s set up with everything she needs, including a dedicated garden bed. 

This raised metal bed is 24 inches deep and can hold up to 269 gallons of soil. It’s easy to assemble and is made of steel panels, so it’s sturdy enough to withstand inclement weather or accidents (like Dad running into it with a lawnmower).

It’s the perfect place for Mom to grow all her veggies and admire blooming plants when she goes outside. Plus, she doesn’t have to bend over so far to reach them, which is a considerate move. Gift her this garden bed and this time next year, it’ll be bustling with activity.

Kamala Harris will speak with “60 Minutes” tomorrow. Here’s what to know for the interview.

Published

Voters will get the chance to hear from Vice President Kamala Harris on Monday as she presents her case for why she should be president in a “60 Minutes” election special.

For decades, “60 Minutes” has featured both Republican and Democratic nominees for presidents, but this year, former President Donald Trump backed out after previously indicating he would be on the show. Correspondent Scott Pelley, who’d been set to interview Trump, will instead travel to Arizona’s Maricopa County, home to more than 60% of Arizona’s voters and a critical battleground in a key swing state. 

One thing is certain about the election; with the U.S. deeply involved in both the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, whoever wins on Nov. 5 will become a wartime president. 

What Harris will discuss

Israel’s war started one year ago after Hamas launched a surprise terror attack and correspondent Bill Whitaker will discuss the ongoing war with Harris. 

Harris will also discuss the economy, immigration, her record as vice president and the differences between herself and Trump.

Democratic vice presidential candidate Gov. Tim Walz will also appear.

Whitaker joined the Democratic ticket on the campaign trail this week to gain insight into their platform’s priorities and values, and what the candidates believe voters should know. 

Why Trump pulled out of the “60 Minutes” interview

Leading up to the candidate hour, Trump, through campaign spokespeople, was the first candidate to accept the “60 Minutes” request to be interviewed for the special, according to CBS News. It had been agreed that both candidates would receive equal time during the broadcast.

Trump last sat down with 60 Minutes in 2020. He walked out during the interview with Lesley Stahl. Trump referenced the incident on Tuesday night at a Milwaukee press conference when asked about his decision not to participate in the Oct. 7 “60 Minutes” election special. 

“Well, right now, I went to – they came to me and would like me to do an interview, but first I want to get an apology, because the last time I did an interview with them, if you remember, they challenged me on the computer,” Trump said. “They said the ‘laptop from hell’ was from Russia, and I said it wasn’t from Russia. It was from Hunter, and I never got an apology, so I’m sort of waiting. I’d love to do ’60 Minutes.’ I do everything.”

The Republican nominee for president emphasized that he felt he was owed an apology from “60 Minutes.”

“Let’s see if they do it. I wouldn’t mind doing 60,” Trump continued. “I’ve done ’60 Minutes’ a lot.”

In a statement on Tuesday, Trump campaign communications director Steven Cheung said that Trump’s team had not agreed to an interview.

“Fake News,” Cheung said in a post on X. “60 Minutes begged for an interview, even after they were caught lying about Hunter Biden’s laptop back in 2020. There were initial discussions, but nothing was ever scheduled or locked in. They also insisted on doing live fact checking, which is unprecedented.”

Previous Trump, Harris appearances on 60 Minutes

Trump previously sat down with “60 Minutes'” Mike Wallace in 1985, Pelley in 2015 and Lesley Stahl twice in 2016, first in July of that year and then again in November of 2016. He also spoke with Stahl again in 2018 and 2020.

Harris previously sat down with Whitaker last year. She also was interviewed by Norah O’Donnell, “CBS Evening News” anchor and “60 Minutes” contributing correspondent, in 2020
