How do we thank the fathers and father figures in our lives for all they do for us? I have put together this blog to outline some great and budget friendly gift ideas for our fathers.
There are so many cliches associated with gifts given on Father's Day. Socks, ties, mugs etc. The fact of the matter is the thought that goes into whatever gift you are giving your father is the true reflection of its value. I have an arrangement of ideas that I personally love and due to their budget friendly nature, hopefully they can spark some great ideas for you to spoil your dad this Fathers' Day.
1. Shirts
There is nothing like gifting a shirt to your father. These days you can find shirts with just about any funny quote or relatable hobby slogan on them. It's always a great idea to give a gift that can continue to be used and worn throughout the year and always bring a smile to your dad's face.
2. Anything BBQ
Whether it's a grill, a BBQ or a Braai, there are an infinite number of tools needed to create the perfect eating experience. Below are a few affordable items you could gift to your father to add to his collection.
3. Memory Keepsakes
Turns out I am a sucker for sentimental things. The year my daughter was born I had a beautiful canvas made with a picture of my husband and daughter together for his first Father's Day and to me memory keepsakes are the kinds of things that stick around. They find their way through our lives being kept safe in one way or another because of the meaning they bring.
4. Novelty Gifts
Some families thrive with humor and what better way to celebrate your father than to gift him something he will remember. It could be funny or be a potentially clever hack for something nobody ever thought of.
5. Drinking Utensils
I may have included mugs in the cliche gift part of this blog but drinking cups or glasses are always a great gift for any occasion serving as a reminder to your dad that he is the best, every single day. I should mention the temperature controlled self-heating mug option below might not fall under the category of "cheap" but girl math might suggest the number of replacement beverages would eventually add up to the same amount over a period of time given how many cups of coffee/tea get neglected as a result of our busy lives.
6. Movie Night
There's probably no excuse needed to enjoy a movie night with your loved ones. I've put together a list of movie favorites celebrating dads in many different and sometimes funny ways.
7. Man Cave Essentials
A sort of "man"ctuary to relax, the name of the game is comfort. Here are a few items for your dad to enjoy in his man cave space or any outdoor activity that he loves.
8. Grooming and Self-care
You can never have too many grooming kits. Whether its beard grooming or trimming or hair clipping, these kits will cover all your grooming needs.
