If you’ve ever found yourself panic-googling “cheap Mother’s Day gifts” at the eleventh hour—hi, same. I love my mom, but between everyday chaos and the fact that Mother’s Day tends to sneak up out of nowhere, finding the perfect gift can feel like a whole thing. Add in the pressure to make it meaningful and affordable, and suddenly, you’re spiraling in a gift aisle wondering if a candle and a card will cut it (spoiler: it absolutely can).
Surprise to absolutely no one: CVS has our back with a lineup of under-$25 gifts that are thoughtful, cute, and totally mom-approved. Whether your mom is a self-care queen, as sentimental as they come, or would be genuinely thrilled with a fresh pair of cozy socks, you can grab something she’ll actually use and appreciate without breaking the bank this year. Here are a few of our favorite affordable Mother’s Day gifts you can pick up this week:
This ice roller is the ultimate self-care sidekick, perfect for de-puffing tired eyes, soothing post-workout soreness, or just giving her five uninterrupted minutes of calm. It’s the kind of gift she wouldn’t buy for herself but will end up using every day.
Everyone needs a calendar, and this customizable one that’s functional, works as decor, and has her favorite people featured on every month is the way to go.
Because Mom’s hands do everything—treat them to a little love with this Cuticle Hydration Set. Packed with nourishing oils and balms, it’s a fabulous way to keep her nails looking polished (even if she hasn’t had time for a manicure in weeks).
A quick spritz of this toning mist instantly hydrates, soothes, and perks up skin—perfect for her morning routine or a midday pick-me-up. It’s a small-but-mighty upgrade to her skincare lineup that says, “You deserve to feel pampered,” without needing to book a facial.
A photo book offers Mom the perfect coffee table accessory. Plus, it acts as a great conversation starter anytime company comes over and picks it up.
Whether she’s into yoga, Pilates, or just stretching it out whenever she can, this fitness mat is the gift that supports her—literally. Cushy, non-slip, and durable, it’s a Mother’s Day pick that says “I see you making time for yourself” in the best way.
Compact enough to toss in a tote but powerful enough to turn any space into a mini oasis, this pick is perfect for the mom who’s always on the go but still deserves a little luxury wherever she lands.
For the mom who knows how to throw down in the kitchen, this molcajete kit is equal parts pretty and practical. Perfect for grinding spices, whipping up fresh guac, or mastering salsa from scratch, this will take her cooking to the next level.
Bring a personal touch to the fridge with an acrylic photo magnet. She can use it to hang up any lists or appointment reminders, and you can make sure you stay rent-free on her mind.
Lightweight, nourishing, and made to multitask, this is the kind of skincare staple that feels indulgent but fits right into even the most minimalist routine to give her a soft, radiant glow.
Give Mom a gift that doubles as quality time. This puzzle is the best excuse to put your phones down and spend the afternoon laughing, chatting, and pretending not to be competitive about it.
Gently weighted for calming pressure and designed to block out the world, a weighted eye mask is a ticket to deeper rest—whether Mom is squeezing in a nap or winding down after a long day.
This lightweight, oil-free moisturizer is a cult favorite for a reason. It’s a skincare staple she’ll love that will keep her skin smooth and hydrated all day long.
If your mom is a fan of a fun game night, having some classic dominoes on hand is a must. Plus, the packaging is cute enough to leave out on display.
With just a hint of shimmer and the perfect flush of color, this blush that our editors swear by gives the best natural glow to effortlessly brighten up your look.
This candle is basically calm in a jar—floral, soothing, and just the right amount of luxury. It will have the whole room smelling like a high-end spa and is the best little touch to wind down after a long day.
The satin lining on this cap protects strands from frizz and breakage, while the chic outer shell keeps things cute. It’s the kind of Mother’s Day gift she didn’t know she needed but will definitely thank you for.
