Product Description
Achieve automatic warmth wherever you are, with the Sunbeam Microplush Electric Heated Throw Blanket (50″ x 60″). Take a nap, watch TV or lounge around the house with the warmth of our cuddly soft Sunbeam Camelot Microplush Heated Throw. Great for travel or for drafty rooms, this heated throw can also help you save money on heating bills since you don’t have to turn the temperature up in the whole house. This throw features luxuriously soft and smooth microplush fabric. The PrimeStyle controller is easy to grip, includes 3 warming settings and 3-hour auto-off for convenience. Made from easy care machine wash and dry fabric. Made from 100% Polyester.
At the heart of this Sunbeam Heated Throw is the ThermoFine Warming System, which can automatically respond to body, bed or room temperature changes. It senses how you feel over many zones of your body and then adjusts to deliver warmth precisely where and when you need it. If the temperature drops, invisible micro-sensors continually alert the ThermoFine Warming System to immediately send more heat just to the right area.

Does your mom like to read? How about buying her an ebook reader?
I’ve been reading most of my books in e format for years now, and I’m completely hooked. Here are some of the advantages. I no longer have to worry about shelving space for the loads of books I buy, because I can fit more than a thousand books on a device. Want to read something you don’t already own? Well, now you don’t need to make a trip to the store, or wait for it to be delivered. Just download what you feel like reading at any given moment. Instant gratification!
If you mom is a reader, she will love the Kindle.

Kindle Features
Sleek & Light: At 10.2 ounces, Kindle is lighter than a typical paperback and as thin as most magazines. Barely a third of an inch in profile, you’ll find Kindle fits perfectly in your hands.
Ergonomic Design: Kindle is easy to hold and read. We designed it with long-form reading in mind. When reading for long periods of time, people naturally shift positions and often like to read with one hand. Kindle’s page-turning buttons are located on both sides, allowing you to read and turn pages comfortably with one hand from any position.
Long Battery Life—Read for Days Without Recharging
Get Books in as Little as 60 Seconds: Whispernet utilizes Amazon’s optimized technology plus a high-speed data network to enable you to wirelessly search, discover, and download content on the go.
Holds Over 1,500 Books: The ultimate travel companion, Kindle weighs 10.2 ounces and holds up to 1,500 books. No longer pick and choose which books fit in your carry-on. You can always have your entire Kindle library with you.
Paper-Like Screen: Utilizing the latest in electronic-ink display technology, Kindle provides a crisp black-and-white 6″ screen with the same appearance and readability of printed paper. Sharp and natural with no glare or backlight, reading on Kindle is nothing like reading from a computer screen. Those who see it for the first time always do a double-take. The screen works using ink, just like books and newspapers, but displays the ink particles electronically. And unlike a laptop or smart phone, Kindle never gets warm so you can comfortably read as long as you like.
Read-To-Me Feature: With the experimental Text-to-Speech feature, Kindle can read English newspapers, magazines, blogs, and books out loud to you, unless the book’s rights holder made the feature unavailable. You can switch back and forth between reading and listening, and your spot is automatically saved. Pages automatically turn while the content is being read, so you can listen hands-free. You can choose from both male and female voices which can be sped up or slowed down to suit your preference. In the middle of a great book or article but have to jump in the car? Simply turn on Text-to-Speech and listen on the go.

No kitchen is complete without a mixer. And having a small hand mixer is an excellent addition. I don’t know about you, but I don’t have enough counter space to keep the big stand mixer on it, so hauling that puppy out just to whip out some cream is torture. The perfect solution is having a hand mixer for those smaller jobs. But don’t be fooled. This KitchenAid hand mixer has a motor powerful enough to handle bigger jobs like a pro too. However, you are going to have to leave mixing your bread dough to a more powerful stand mixer.
If you mom spends any amount of time in the kitchen and doesn’t keep a big stand mixer out on the counter, consider a hand mixer. She will love this gift!
