Pleasing mom on Mother's Day doesn't have to cost an arm and a leg.

Dozens of restaurants are offering one-day deals that will feed the whole family, though one would be advised of staying away from Hooters and TGI Fridays.

Not that the chain restaurants aren't offering Mother's Day discounts; TGI Fridays is offering half-off bottles of wine and Hooters is giving mom a free meal with a drink purchase. Mom might not be fond of sports on every television screen and scantily-clad women taking her order.

Let's take a look at some spots more suited for mom this Sunday.

Retailers

Zoo and museum admission - Check local websites, or search the national gardens public site, for various museums, zoos, and public gardens that will allow free admission to mothers and grandmothers.  

Eudents gift card - The education product supplies is gifting mothers with a free $10 gift card. All you have to do is fill out a Mother's Day promotion form.

Pottery Barn kids flower craft - Kids at select Pottery Barns can enroll in free classes aimed at making mom fun tissue-paper flower crafts. Parents who post a photo with the hashtag #PKBmom will be entered to win a Polaroid Cube Camera and $100 Pottery Barn Kids gift card.
