Shopping for a Mother's Day gift always has us stumped. How many scented candles does one woman really need?

Luckily, Gilt City Chicago is offering up some discounts for appropriate packages well in advance. If you're looking for an affordable, experiental gift and a way to spend some quality time with Mama, one of these may be the way to go (spoiler alert: One gift is totally FREE.)

Red Carpet Great Gatsby Viewing: This one costs absolutely nothing. All you have to do is RSVP for your chance to attend a screening of the movie and the cocktail event leading up to it. It's a classic story made modern by cinematic choices—what better way to bridge the generational gap?
This package goes on sale on 4/29.

Pampering at Spa on Oak: Two spa services go for just $60 (a $190 value.) Service options include your choice of a 50-minute facial, 50-minute massage, signature spa mani and pedi, body scrub, body slimming wrap (yes please,) custom airbrush tan, microdermabrasion, or Brazilian wax. The package also includs one glass of champagne.
Goes on sale 4/29.

Cupcakes and cocktails: Take Mom to a cupcake making class. She'll enjoy it whether she's a veteran baker or a clueless cook. Retails for $90, get it on Gilt for $45 and the classes are BYOB.
Goes on sale 5/1.
