We have heard enough about the recession and how more spending will actually help make things better, so here comes an opportunity to put some of that into practice.

Sony has a couple of interesting deals targeted at mothers, and presumably in pink. The first one is the pink Cyber-shot S980BDL. This 12.1MP camera comes with a sharp 2.7-inch display, 4X-optical zoom, face-detection, and digital image stabilization among other features. The offer entitles you, in addition, to a 2GB Memory Stick PRO Duo, and a matching floral black and pink case to protect from bumps and scratches. Which is a pretty good deal at $149.99. The second offer is that you will get $150 off on any purchase of Sony Vaio CS that is bundled along with a Dooney & Burke Tote Bag. Which essentially means that you get the tote bag free with your purchase (the bag itself costs $149.99).

We say, if you haven't yet begun, there not a better time than to start splurging for Mother's Day.
