It can be hard to find a father’s day gift for dads.
I know because my dad tends to buy stuff whenever he wants or needs it, leaving very little room for the “surprise!” factor.
Most of the time, he’s also content with just having a meal together or just receiving plain cash. (In Asian culture, this is normal). But if you’re looking to be a bit more imaginative and thoughtful, we got some picks for you below:
For the Dad with a Man’s Best Friend
If your dad has a fur-son or fur-daughter, he might appreciate getting a monthly subscription to BarkBox for Father’s Day.
Each month, the box is filled with at least 2 innovative toys, 2 all-natural bags of treats, and a chew that fits the theme. Past themes have been “Chewrassic Bark,” “The Good, the Bad, and the Pugly,” and “Knights of the Hound Table.” Perfect for the punny Dad that has a never-ending supply of “dad-jokes.”
Barkbox will also send a free replacement if his dog doesn’t like the month’s toy(s)!
Don’t forget to activate Ebates for $5 cash back if you do get a BarkBox. You’ll also get a $10 welcome bonus!
For the Dad that has a Hidden Sentimental Side
Do you have a favorite photo of you and your dad? Maybe an older family photo that’s been buried but has intense nostalgia factor.
Instead of printing them the normal way, add some longevity by making a canvas print out of your photo. The texture adds to making it a work of art as well as making it super easy to hang on the wall.
Easy Canvas Prints has a limited time deal on their popular 16″ x 20″ canvas size for only $24.99 with free shipping. More sentimental than a typical tie or “World’s Best Dad” mug right?
For the Dad that Has No Time to Clean His Garage
This undertaking will definitely require some time and effort but just imagine his surprise when you slowly open that garage door and watch his face.
Not ready to go that route of garage cleaning?
How about just cleaning his toolbox instead and shining them up? If your dad’s a handyman, he may have his tools stored in a specific way but he’s been too busy, this is a great (and free) Father’s Day gift to him!
For the Dad that Loves Books
If your dad is a literary guy, sign him up to win 100 Great American Reads by Penguin Random House!
And then gift him an actual book from Amazon’s Best Seller’s list or whatever topic that strikes his fancy. You can even gift him one of your favorite books.
For the Dad that Loves Beer
For the dad that loves to knock back a cold one or try different kinds of beers, consider The Microbrewed Beer of the Month Club this father’s day!
There are 5 different options to choose from including International Beer, IPA, small-batch craft beer, and more.
Your dad will definitely think of you when he opens one.
And if you’re just going to the store to grab some spirits for the party, be sure to use Ibotta to get cash back on beer, hard liquor, and wine!
