When thinking of Mother’s Day gifts, people usually think of things like flowers, candy, makeup, perfume, breakfast in bed, and massage or spa gift certificates.
As a mom, of course, I think those all sound great (and are good year-round, honestly…).
But I think most moms also want gifts that are unique, practical and make their lives easier – specifically, tech gifts and electronic devices!
When I think about technology, I typically just shop for something when I need it. Then I’m done. All the options out there are fascinating – robotic vacuums, devices that talk to you and tell you about your day, and powerful but small speakers that connect wirelessly. But to me it can also be very overwhelming.
This is one of the many reasons I love shopping at Device Pitstop. It’s small, but they have a ton of stuff. The smaller size of the store makes it an easy, in-and-out, one-stop shop for everything you need from larger items like computers to smaller items like chargers and other accessories. And their team is always available to answer questions and help you find what you need.
I just went to Device Pitstop of Maple Grove this weekend to pick up a smartphone mount for my car’s dashboard. I use my phone for directions so much but I needed a safe place to put it while driving. I knew Device Pitstop would have a ton of smartphone accessories including mounts, and I found a perfect one for $14.99. I was appreciative that Seth, one of their team members, made sure it was a good fit for my phone, as they also had another option for heavier phones than mine.
In addition to refurbished laptops, tablets, smartphones and other devices, Device Pitstop carries a wide variety of accessories for every device. Any of them make great gifts for mom (or yourself!) because face it, we moms don’t always think to buy these things for ourselves. I’ve used my phone for directions for YEARS and finally got a mount now. I should have gotten around to getting one a long time ago. But then I looked at their other accessories and thought hey, many of these would make GREAT gifts for moms. And they have colors and designs for everyone and every device.
Plus, Device Pitstop of Maple Grove is a woman-owned business! Teresa Swenson is a busy mom of three who runs the business with her husband Brad. So they understand what moms need and want!
