10 best buys under $40

10 best buys under $40

If you’re still trying to find a gift for Mother’s Day this Sunday, we’ve got the top 10 gifts that won’t break the bank.

1. Elizabeth Arden Sunflowers EDP, $17.95 at Amcal
Love this floral fragrance. I went through a phase of wearing it daily.

2. “Change of Heart” by Jodi Picoult, $19.95 at BIG W, Angus & Robertson and Borders
Save $13 on this new bestseller.

3. Kambrook rice cooker, $19.98 at Betta Electrical
If, like me, you manage to ruin rice each time you cook it, a rice cooker is the easy way to get it right.

4. Remington Big Shot hair dryer, $29.98 at Betta Electrical
I’ve always found Remington products to be reliable and $30 is a good price for a hair dryer.

5. Lavender cubic zirconia ring, $39 at Michael Hill Jeweller
This is a gorgeous looking cocktail ring.

6. Rose Bouquet gift set, $9.95 at Terry White Chemists
The set contains rose-scented hand and body lotion, body scrub and soap petals.

7. Georgia dinnerware pieces, $2.39 at Target
The separates include a side plate, mug, milk jug or bowl - you could buy a couple and put together a set.

8. Homedics Bubble Spa footbath, $39.94 at Tandy
After a rare day of wearing high heels today, this footspa is looking pretty good to me right now.

9. Snooze Zone pyjama set, $39.99 at Best & Less
$40 for PJ pants and top and a nightie? Bargain.

10. “Comfort Food” by Kate Jacobs, $21.44 at Target
Not actually a cookbook, but a fun new girly novel.
