There are many things that I’m glad I have that I can attribute to my mother:

• Her good looks
• Her servant’s heart
• The way she makes others feel loved
• My need to save as much money as possible with things

If you understand at all that last one, then you know the word FREE is music to my ears! And what’s better than free stuff for yourself? Free stuff for the people you love. Well, on Mother’s Day, don’t miss these places that want to keep your momma’s money in her pocket:
