My very own personal fanfic of Shmi after TPM is that she had already known Cliegg Lars for years and there was already friendship and romantic feelings between them, but they had never been able to afford the price Watto wanted for both her and Anakin (nor did they have any other way to rescue them) (I am using "they" here because Shmi was part of this plotting). Anakin, being very young, was mostly unaware of this. After TPM, Watto was poorer from losing at gambling and (mysteriously, how very unlucky for him,) ran into even more problems, and Anakin was gone, and Shmi had that pot of money from Qui-Gon selling Anakin's pod for him stashed away, and all these things conspired so that it was not very long at all before Cliegg could buy her in order to free her.
