Need Gift Ideas for Father's Day?

Here is a Range of Gifts Suggestions You Can Afford and He Would Like

Charles Willoughby
Gift Buying for Dad can be very tough. It is difficult to know what Dads want or need as too often they are silent and their most frequent response to a question asking what they would like for a gift is....."I don't need anything".

While Dad may be telling the truth chances are there are many new gadgets, tools clothes...something they would like.

Here is a list of possibilities that may be helpful. Reviewing these you will know if any of these are among Dad's field of interest and maybe even whether Dad has need of any. If not, hopefully this list will help you think of a better possibility.

As I do not know your budget for Dad, I have listed these suggested from the least expensive up. Hope this helps:

1. Bushnell Binoculars 12 X 25mm $15.00

This is a great inexpensive gift for Dad who is a sportsman, hunter or bird watcher.

2. Mr. Clean Auto Dry & Car wash Kit $15.00

New way to efficiently wash and dry Dad's car using pressurized water.

3. Shop-Vac 1 gallon vacuum $20.00

Provides a personal vacuum for dirty shop and car usage.

4. Callaway Gold Balls 1 doz. $25.00

If dad is a golfer, consider these a gift any golfer can use.

5. Black and Decker Jump starter $35.00

Let's Dad jump-start cars with a dead battery without connecting jumper cables between cars. Safer too!

6. Black and Decker 18 volt Cordless Drill $65.00

A very good price for a powerful cordless drill and it includes a cordless flashlight. If Dad doesn't have one he could use this.

7. Audiovox portable DVD Player $80.00

Lets Dad play movies on the go.

8. 160 GB Toshiba portable hard drive $118.00

Let's the computer Dad back up his computer files, photos, and music.

9. Garmin GPS Navigation System $170.00

Provides maps and direction using satellite GPS system. Every dad wants one.

10. IPOD touch 8GB $300.00

Allows Dad to surf the web and check email using wireless connection. Plays and stores music, photos, and much more....for the Dad who has everythingelse.

If none of these ring a bell as right for your Dad, I hope it triggers other possibilities.

Happy Father's Day!
