Mother's Day is Sunday, but there's no need to panic, even if you're short on cash.

This year, there are enough freebies to keep her busy all day long. And she definitely won't go hungry.

Keep reading for the complete list of freebies, which includes free DVD rentals, free admission to an IMAX movie, free breakfasts, free lunch, free desserts and more.

I'll continue to update the list as the week goes on so check back often.

Barry Porter, regional executive director of the American Red Cross, will give a free presentation on the history and services of the Red Cross, including the organization's role in WWI in Raleigh. The program will be at the Raleigh City Museum from 1 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, January 14. The museum's collection includes original WWI posters and propaganda.

The Ava Gardner Museum in Smithfield was recently ranked No. 2 in the country.

Livability.com, a website that rates quality of life in towns across the U.S., featured the downtown museum in an article on the "Top 10 Fun and Unusual Museums." The website's editors wrote that they "went digging for these weird museum gems in dynamic cities across the U.S."  and the hometown homage to Gardner  came out near the top.

The museum ranked just ahead of the Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame in Fort Worth, Texas, and the Great American Dollhouse Museum in Danville, Ky. But the National Museum of Roller Skating in Lincoln, Neb., edged out the Ava Museum for the top spot.
