Mother's Day is this weekend, so don't forget Mom or the "Mom" in your life. It could be an auntie, grandmother, cousin or family friend. Most moms are not fussy, but it's a nice gesture to thank the person that's made an impact and has been a role model in your life.

We have some gift ideas for Mom that you can do on a budget:

• Give her a photo gift. Visit kodak.com, snapfish.com or your local drugstore and make her a gift with your picture or one of her favorite pics. Add a pic to a mug, a calendar, bag or personalized Mother's Day card for her to show off to her friends. 

• Gift card to Starbucks, Dunkin' Donuts or her favorite coffee spot. If your mom is like most moms, myself included, she's busy and coffee is her fuel to get her day started in the morning. These cards can be purchased for as little as $5. She can use it to get a cup of coffee, coffee beans or a special treat.

• Make her dinner. If you're able to cook, make her favorite meal. If you're not a chef in the kitchen, you can go to your local grocery store for help. Many grocery stores will have whole, cooked chickens, prepared salads or other sides you can purchase at the deli (potato salad, vegetable salads, etc.). It may not be homemade, but it will give mom a much-needed night off from cooking.

• Give her an online gift. Since you may not have a 9-to-5 and get your spending money from your moms, you may not have money for a gift. Send her an e-card from doozycards.com, create a photo slide show on flickr.com or create a special message from the heart on YouTube.
