A recent thread on our Talk boards asking “What would you like for Mother’s Day?” has struck a chord with users - and the answers are refreshingly simple.

Rather than big, expensive presents, many mums say the things they’d most appreciate are a lie-in, coffee in bed, a homemade card from the kids, pastries for breakfast or a bit of time to themselves (I know I do). Others mentioned small comforts like flowers, pyjamas, a good book to read in the bath, or something practical they’ll use every day.

With Amazon’s Spring Deal Days sale running this week, we’ve matched some of the most popular ideas from the Talk thread with products currently discounted in the sale - so if you are buying a gift, these are some of the deals worth a look.

The best part? If you’re an Amazon Prime member, many items will arrive in time for Sunday thanks to fast delivery.

User AreYouSureAskedNaomi wants "to spend the day in bed reading, drinking tea and eating pastries. And someone hoovering up the crumbs."

Well Naomi, you're in luck. Whoever's picking your Mother's Day gifts this year has plenty of options to choose from thanks to your request. In fact, here are some gift ideas I personally recommend that are currently discounted in the Amazon Spring Deal Days sale.

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (newest gen, 16GB), was £170, now £135 | Shop the deal on Amazon

Being straight to the point, user CDTC shared: "I want a ceramic egg chicken 😂" and honestly, it’s hard not to agree.

And it seems like a few more Mumsnet users on the the thread have added a ceramic egg chicken to their Mother's Day wishlist, too. You trendsetter, CDTC.

HeddaGarbled would like "some Spring bulbs in a pretty container for indoors that I can plant in the garden once they’ve finished flowering."

I am the furthest from having a green thumb, so I'm not best placed to recommend the absolute best gifts in this area. That said, there are a few savings to be had on good beginner sets that will help get you started in the garden this year.

While we can't help with the peace and quiet request made by DoomCup, we can give a hand with her other idea: "I'd also like a little pendant in a chain that's small enough for every day wear. My main necklace is a bit chunky for work and casual wear."

(Can someone share these with my husband, too? Thanks).

Onetwothreefourgo has the right idea: "A lie in and breakfast in bed followed by a steaming hot bubble bath… glass of fizz and not having to cook."

Now here's a Mother's Day gift I can get onboard with. Complete the perfect hot bubble bath setup with a bath board, Neal's Yard goodies and a rather comfy bath pillow - all in the sale.

Reading through the thread, one thing becomes clear: the gifts mums say they want most aren’t necessarily expensive.

A lie-in, a homemade card, a bunch of flowers and a bit of time to relax came up again and again. But if you are planning to buy something to unwrap this Mother’s Day, Amazon’s Spring Deal Days sale means plenty of those small treats are currently discounted.

If you’re planning to shop the deals, here’s everything you need to know about Amazon’s Spring Deal Days event.

When is the Amazon Spring Sale 2026?

Amazon’s Spring Deal Days event runs from 10th to 16th March 2026, with thousands of deals across beauty, home, fashion, tech and everyday essentials. Discounts change throughout the week, with limited-time lightning deals and daily offers, so it’s worth checking back regularly if you’re hoping to snap up something specific.

Is the Amazon Spring Sale worth it?

Yes - particularly if you already know what you’re looking for. While the Spring Sale isn’t as big as Black Friday, it often includes genuinely useful discounts on popular products, from home gadgets and skincare to books, kitchen kit and everyday essentials.

It’s also well timed if you’re looking for a last-minute Mother’s Day gift or stocking up on things you already buy regularly.

What kind of deals can I expect?

You’ll find up to 50% off across categories including:

  • Beauty and skincare (think COSRX, Elizabeth Arden, OPI)

  • Hair tools and electricals

  • Oral care and grooming gadgets

  • Home and kitchen essentials

  • Tech for kids and families

Are these deals available to non-Prime members?

Yes - you don’t need an Amazon Prime membership to access Spring Deal Days discounts.

However, Prime members may get faster delivery and early access to some lightning deals, which can be helpful if you’re ordering a gift close to Mother’s Day.

Can I return Amazon Spring Sale items?

Yes. Most items purchased during Spring Deal Days are covered by Amazon’s standard 30-day return policy. If the product is sold by a third-party seller rather than Amazon directly, it’s worth checking the individual seller’s return policy before purchasing.

How do I know I’m getting a good deal?

Look for products with:

  • High user ratings

  • Mumsnet Talk recommendations

  • Previous price history (CamelCamelCamel is a good tool for checking this)
