After treating your mom to brunch, the bars and the frats, why not capture the experience with a memorable gift?
Conveniently located near the picturesque Main Quad and adjacent to the hustle and bustle of Green Street, the Illini Union Bookstore is known for its versatility of goods and services.
This reputation doesn’t end with mom-friendly gifts, though — it only begins. If her idea of a present is quality time, grab a table at the Starbucks on the first floor to catch up on how college is going.
For something more tangible, browse the array of sporty “Illinois Mom” shirts that any mother would be proud to wear — if you’re feeling goofy, there are even “Illinois Dad” and “Illinois Grandpa” shirts.
Before you head to checkout, make sure to snag a cute squirrel plushie keychain clad in blue and orange — its irresistible adorableness might serve as an effective distraction from the $200 textbook waiting in the basement to be bought for your upcoming class. The possibilities are endless.
Whatever you choose, you’re sure to make your mom feel appreciated with a well-deserved gift from the Illini Union Bookstore.
