Ideas for What to Buy for One of the Hardest Person on Your Gift List
Hard to believe but next month is Father’s Day and for anyone wanting to honor a father, grandfather, special uncle or any other man who plays the role of father, we know it can be hard to get them a gift they will appreciate. This is where the internet can be helpful with suggestions of things that are both thoughtful and useful, and speaks to the relationship you share. Often the site will direct to where you can purchase the items.
Many of us are familiar with Oprah’s list of her “Favorite Things” she puts out each year. In the same spirit she has a list for items sure to be welcomed by the dads on your gift list for Father’s Day. Items range from grilling ideas, indulgent foods, grooming products, tech and comfy clothing.
One idea is to get dad or grandpa a smart watch; and the suggestions include one that is both highly-rated and reasonably priced. For dads who not only love eating great food but enjoy the role of grill master, treat him to an order of premium beef sent directly to their home for delicious tasting burgers. If he loves making pizza, consider a portable pizza oven or a smoker for making the best ribs. A smokeless fire pit that encourages the family to gather around and spend time together is also a meaningful gift.
Comfy clothes are not just for women. There are many choices out there of good-looking joggers or lounge pants in a range of comfortable fabrics and prices to meet the needs of dad or grandpa. One example that works for the warmer months is a light-weight pair of joggers in a bamboo blend. How about a pair of hands-free sneakers for a dad who wants his shoes on in a jiffy. They are available at different price points, and Skechers makes some that are machine washable. Also, for a weekend warrior dad or grandfather who have their share of aches and pains, consider a portable massager like a TheraGun Therabody or Hypervolt Go.
