2h agoAmericans are preparing to spend more on gifts for their mothers this year, according to a survey from the National Retail Federation.
The organization's survey says people will spend an average of $220 for Mother's Day gifts, which is about $16 more than what was predicted in 2020.
Wyandanch resident Doris Dobson says she plans on spending more on gifts for her 98-year-old mother in 2021 because COVID prevented her from seeing her in 2020.
"So this year it's special," Dobson says. "…I want to make it nice for her."
The top three gift categories for 2021 are flowers, greeting cards and special outings, according to the survey.
The survey found that men are more likely spend more on Mother's Day presents than women.
