Flowers the most popular gift for moms in Singapore

Gift Flowers Singapore's survey on how much Singaporeans intend to spend on their mothers this Mother's Day puts the budget at above S$20. The online florist is headquartered in Hong Kong and recently expanded into Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.

Over a third of the respondents surveyed said they would spend between S$20 and S$100 (38%) while 54% said they would spend between S$100 and S$200 on their mother. A minority (8%) said they would spend more than S$200.

Most will buy flowers

Flowers remain the most popular gift for Mother's Day, with 46% of respondents opting for them. This is closely followed by taking their mother out for a meal at 30%. Other popular gifts include jewellery (7%) and electronics (7%).

How consumers will shop

Almost eight in 10 (77%) of respondents said they would purchase gifts for their mothers online. Nearly half (46%) estimated they would spend between one and three hours shopping for Mother's Day presents this year. Another 14% said they would spend more than three hours shopping, and a third (30%) - either pressed for time or having already decided on the gift - said they would spend an hour or less.

The florist added that it is a myth that daughters will celebrate Mother's Day more often than sons. Sons will spend just as much on Mother's Day as the daughters, the survey revealed.
