Do your Mom a favor. Don't get her the same old, tired gift for Mother's Day this year (it's May 13, so mark your calendar).

Mom doesn't want flowers or a kitchen appliance this year, she wants something cool that she'll use. She wants you to "Get It Right" by giving her the latest digital technology from THE WIZ.

-- We know that Mom wants a digital camera to take pictures of you and your
kids and send them to all of her friends. Digital cameras start from $49.99
with brands including Olympus, Canon and Sony at THE WIZ.

-- And, we bet your Mom has a busier schedule than you do. How about giving her
a personal digital assistant (PDA), like the Palm m100, to help her keep track
for just $129.99.

-- Or, a cellular phone and a hands free headset so she's safe on the road.
Cell phone services including Verizon and Sprint PCS are available at THE WIZ.

And, from May 3rd through May 13 when you spend $499 or more on your Mom or yourself, THE WIZ will give you a gift certificate for $100 off a consecutive two-night stay at participating Hyatt hotels. And, if you spend $799 or more, you'll receive two $100 Hyatt gift certificates.

THE WIZ, a subsidiary of Cablevision, is the tri-state area's premier consumer electronics retailer. Operating in 42 locations, THE WIZ offers more than 30,000 products and services including Optimum Online, Cablevision's high-speed Internet service, and the latest in audio, video, computer and home office products, as well as music and movies.
