Drop Down Deals Dude Shops for Mother’s Day

Saturday, April 30th, 2011

With Mother’s Day coming up in such a short time, our favorite money saving super hero, Drop Down Dude, is anxious to get his mother the perfect gift. Despite being a superhero and savior of many shopaholics, he forgot Mother’s Day was coming until just this week…

Dude…Really?

But what do you get for a superhero mother?

Drop Down Dude decided flowers would be a good start. Everybody likes flowers. Right?

At 1-800Flowers.com, he used the Drop Down Deals window which slid down in the top right corner of the browser to save on the bouquet of flowers he had decided on.

He had anticipated the cost of the flowers to be ridiculous as it always is during this time a year, but was immediately relieved when he saw the marvelous discounts revealed one after another as the window came down.

SCORE! He hit the jackpot with 15% off mother’s day items.

If only he could also hit the Mega Millions jackpot too, he thought.

Flowers for mom, check!

But his Mom is so important to him, and since he saved money on flowers he decided to get her something else. Like many wonderful, smart, and talented woman, his mother absolutely loves shoes, specifically NineWest shoes, at least that is what his mom said the last time they spoke on the phone.

Fortunately, DDD has amazing deals for Ninewest at the moment– up to 50% off select styles at Ninewest.com AND free shipping. Another VICTORY against retail for the Drop Down Dude!

Mom’s favorite shoes, check!

Lastly, as a finishing touch to his gift and because he has been craving something sweet, Dude visits BakemeaWish.com to find a delicious cake for his mom that will surely put the icing on the cake, literally. He goes for the red velvet chocolate cake and uses the coupon for 15% off any cake thinking his mom (and he) will sure be happy after eating some of that.

Relieved that he finished his Mother’s Day shopping, he thinks to himself he should really start Father’s Day shopping to avoid such a strain on his superpowers.

Happy Mother’s day to every mom who is a superhero mom!
