While about 84-percent of U.S. adults celebrate Mother's Day, there is a LOT of money spent for the holiday. Whether you're buying mom a gift card, taking her to the spa or going out to eat on Mother's Day, this year $31.7 billion will be spent on the holiday! And according to the National Retail Federation, that's up about $3.6 billion from last year.
Wow, that is certainly a log of money, but then again we are talking about mothers -- God's gift to the world. Yup, all the moms deserve whatever they get, and then some!
