But you don't have to go to many stores to find what you need. Instead just head to one store. B&M.
I was given £20 to spend at B&M Stores and I was excited to see what I could fill my hamper with for my mum.
The shelves are full of things that could be perfect for mums. They have such great deals in there mothers day sections and I was amazed at some of the low prices. If you wern't making a hamper then there are some lovely gift sets here that alone make a great gift. As far as I see it, its the thought that counts when it comes to gifts and even a big box of chocolates can put a smile on a mums face.
As far as hampers go, £20, (which is something you may spend on one gift in some stores) could it get me a hamper full of mothers day gifts.
The answer is YES! I was pretty amazed with how good my hamper looked and there was so much choice of what things I could choose to put inside it. I shopped in the mothers day range but also checked out the other isle's to which had some items that I thought were perfect for my mum.

So what did I find for my hamper?
First up was chocolates, a must for my mums hamper. She loves her Chocolate and there was plenty of choice. You could buy a variety of sizes of boxes but I opted to buying 2 small boxes which were both only £1 each. Matchmakers are one of my mums favourites.
Next I was very impressed with the selection of alcohol gift sets. There were ones that had alcohol and chocolates and also some that came with glasses. Also bottles of Prosecco, wine and Baileys. I chose this gift set which had a small bottle of wine in and this gorgeous glass. The glass is going to be perfect for my mum to sit out and drink with in her garden in summer time. Would you believe that this lovely gift set is only £3.99?
Then it was to find some candles for my mum. She loves anything that is to do with scents and candles are perfect for hampers and gifts. There was lots of choice and I even found some Yankee Candles in the store. But I chose this set, I loved the little mum messages on the front and the fact they also came with a diffuser. Such a lovely gift set for only £4.99. This really would make a lovely gift alone, never mind in a hamper.
The next 2 items are more personal to my mum, and perfect for her. She has a thing for black and white, especially zebra patterns. So When I spotted these socks and this umbrella in store. I knew I just had to get them for her. After all, we do live in Lancashire and it does rain a lot here. The socks were £3.99 and the umbrella was £2.99.

To put the final touches to the hamper I found this framed glass sign that said I love you Mum filled with silver sequins, which I thought added a lovely touch. It was only £1.99 and it will look lovely on display.
The hamper box I already had, and had been saving for an occasion I needed to make a hamper, everything just about fit in side it perfectly. I think my mum is going to be really pleased with her hamper and I was really impressed with what I got for £20. I can't wait to give it her on mothers day along with the cute little Mothers Day card I found for her for £1.
Do you ever shop at B&M?
