I'm guessing it's an item of clothing? Any chance you can find it cheaper on ebay? Or maybe you can save up the money by doing some work for neighbours? cleaning cars, dog walks etc?

This is so random !! Save up from birthdays/christmas, odd jobs, do sponsered silence/run/swim

Offer to hoover a few car interiors for an agreed sum? £5.00 per car, that`s three cars = £15. Job done!

I think if I had a kid and they had a pet I'd regard cleaning the pet as a task to do just so they kept the pet, I wouldn't see it as a job that needed additional reward. You can offer to do jobs around the house e.t.c, but if its an issue of money then your best idea might be the suggestions above - earn the money yourself somehow and then get your Mums agreement to spend it.
