Yeah, sure…
Mothers day is a perfect opportunity to buy iPhones, iPads, AirPods, AirTags, Apple Pencils and Apple Watches.
In fact, it’s also perfect to buy Gift cards, Apple TVs, Macs, monitors, cases, keyboards, trackpads, cables, stocks. Just perfect timing.

I bet the day after mothers day will be great to buy Apple stuff, too, according to Apple.

Very nice to see that Apple is still celebrating Mother's Day. Figured that would be an outdated term for them by now. ?
