Ready Steady Wrap the Basket!!!!
Hmm!!!!!!!
Orders for mothers day are in and We are working hard to deliver...though till date, noone has spent up to 50000 naira on a mother...I Wonder why?
For valentine's day,We were juggling blackberries for wives and babes, hawes and curtis shirts...spa vouchers...orders,orders,orders 50000,20000,70000 dropping like its hot.but this time for mothers day....We are actually cajoling folks to give mum a good gift..Na wa 'for the convenient economic meltdown' O!!!
I would have deceived myself that on a normal day people give mummy some fat envelopes and that is why they are relaxing...hmmm but I know the truth o....I have proof that some people have given their mum hugs,kisses and cards(maybe) for a while now and they are scared to break the tradition so She does not keep expecting baskets every mothers day....lol
Sometimes It is soo annoying to get up and You are amazed at the length You would go to get a gift for someone else's mother.That someone else that You had to give 20 reasons to part with 5000 naira...You just get up and go cause that is what You should do and You already see the future without being Psychic...The future is the mother happily beaming and praying for her "thoughtful and loving" son( that you had to give 20 reasons o) and He would bask in the glory...lol
If You really do not have cash,show mum the love with a kind gesture (pls a text or phone call is not enough except she is faraway) i.e cook for her,give her a day off, sing for her,let her have control of the remote for that day (lmao!!!),tell her how much she means to You with spoken words,e.t.c and remember the mum You celebrate with does not have to be your mum...She should just be some that has shown motherly affection towards You or others.She could be your aunty,your sister,your wife sef!!!!
So off our buyers go to the mall to search for gifts for a few wives,sisters and mothers,Hopefully We would get the right combination that would be appreciated (We have to).....
It makes it more difficult but interesting that every order is sooo different...saying our prayers that Mothers would live long to see many more mothers day and hopefully our pockets would not be experiencing a meltdown then.
Luckily, Another mothers day is coming up on the 9th of May...We would be there for You.. :)
P.S Start placing easter orders...Easter is on the 5th of April
