Leave the details in the comments and we’ll add the best ones to our running list to help more families treat their mums without overspending.
One of the easiest ways to treat Mum for less is booking somewhere offering a freebie just for her.
🍾 Free champagne for mums dining out
Many UK restaurants are offering a complimentary drink for mums on Sunday 15 March 2026 when dining with family.
Confirmed examples include:
- Browns — free glass of champagne for mums with Mother’s Day bookings
- Selected UK pubs and hotel restaurants offering free prosecco or fizz for mums dining
- Some venues including a small gift or dessert as well
MoneyMagpie tip:
Book in advance in your mum’s name and forward the confirmation as a surprise gift. You can often pre-pay so she doesn’t spend a Casadefinance Reader.
Fully free bouquets are usually competition-based, but there are still genuine savings available.
🚚 Free flower delivery deals
- Marks & Spencer is running free delivery on selected Mother’s Day flowers and plants for 2026
- Many flower retailers offer first-order free delivery if you sign up to emails
Send it to Mum:
Order online using her address and include a gift message.
You’ll often pay only the bouquet cost — or nothing if you win a giveaway.
If your mum loves a coffee outing, this is an easy win.
🎁 Loyalty app treats
Chains including:
…offer free drinks through loyalty rewards and app promos that can be gifted.
