Mother's Day, clothing swaps and more.

With Mother's Day fast approaching, this week Patch checked out local shops where frugal families can get a great gift for mom without breaking the bank (or even denting it. The bank should look untouched really). So if you need new clothing for your children or want to shop for a Mother's Day gift, keep reading. The deals below will allow you to get those products on the cheap.
