subject: Fathers Day Gifts- Looking In The Right Places [print this page] The top fathers day gifts, year after year, are going to be the same; tickets to a major sporting event, some expensive new gadget or a hardware upgrade or some pricey car accessory. That means that if you dont have a decent paying job then all you can get your dad for fathers day is a pizza. The good thing is dad wont mind because hell know you cant afford that stuff, he wouldnt like you to kill yourself trying to make money just to buy him something thats expensive and also because at least hell get to eat the pizza.
Dads may not care a lot about what they get for fathers day but it would be nice to get your dad a good gift for a change, youd feel like a better son/ daughter and giving dad a treat once in a while makes you feel great. The challenge is finding a gift that you can afford, one that dad will like and one thats actually good enough for a fathers day gift.
Lets say your dad (like most dads) likes sports a lot. It would be easier and cheaper to find a gift related to his favorite sport as opposed to his favorite team. Anything that has a logo or a team name on it is going to cost you more and if it doesnt, like say a mug with your dads favorite teams name, it wont make a very good fathers day gift. Your dad probably has enough mugs, in fact, he probably has a favorite mug and if hes a fan of any team, its likely that he already has the basic fan merchandise like shirts, caps, mugs etc.
If you want to give your dad a good gift, youll have to consider what his interests are; there really isnt any way around it but you dont necessarily need to buy something very expensive. Pens and mugs with logos were popular at a time but now you can find practically anything in a sports theme even fathers day fruit baskets, or fruit bouquets; try going for one of those. Fruit bouquets have a particularly huge variety; theyre arranged in sports themed containers featuring everything from basketballs to racing cars. Edible gifts are always a great option and fruit bouquets are even better since itll be summer and dad will love all the fresh chocolate covered fruit.
