If you’ve been crazy busy the last few weeks, you probably didn’t have time yet to go shopping for the most important person on this Earth: Your mother. Do not panic. Mother’s Day is this Sunday and you have plenty of time (well almost). Whether your mum is tech-savvy, a foodie or a fit mum you will find the perfect gift for her.

Tech-Savvy Mum

iPad Mini with Retina display

Get the world’s best mum a gift to match. Incredibly thin and light, the iPad mini is an iPad in every way, shape and slightly smaller form – the perfect size for mum’s handbag so she can take it anywhere. Surprise mum and download these great recipe apps (listed below) so she has a portable recipe book, and grocery shopping companion. If your mom is into something a little more exciting, she can visit Euro Palace or the app store for some interesting games.

Available in space grey or silver with a recommended retail price from AU$479.00 inc.

iPad Mini Smart Cover

The lightweight, durable Smart Cover protects your iPad mini screen without covering up its durable aluminium back. So your iPad mini still looks and feels like an iPad — just with a little extra protection.
