Dad can be tough to shop for. While he might say he doesn't care about Father's Day,听it will still mean a lot to him聽to get a thoughtful gift from you this Sunday.聽聽
But it's already Friday! If you're scrambling to find a last-minute present聽your dad will actually appreciate (), we've got you covered. Here are four ideas for thoughtful last-minute Father's Day gifts you can buy today and gift on Sunday.
1. Dad-Approved Gift of the Month Clubs
Give dad a well-deserved step up from store bought bacon with a Bacon of the Month Club membership!
Gift of the month clubs are gifts that just keep on giving, which makes them a great option for any special occasion. Month after month, your dad will get a box in the mail and think of you fondly as he opens it up, because shouldn't appreciating your father be a year-round activity? (Definitely write that in the card. He'll like that.)聽The best part about GOTM clubs is that there's one for every kind of hobby, interest or passion--it's not just for makeup samples or designer clothes anymore. Here are a few ideas for GOTM clubs Dad will totally approve of:
- -- $145.95 for 3 months from聽
- 聽-- $19.99/month from聽
- 聽-- $71/month from聽
- 聽-- $39/month from聽
2. An聽听--听$14.99/尘辞苍迟丑
Dads are all about frugal living and HBO programming, two聽things that don't聽exactly go hand-in-hand. But sign up Dad for an HBO Now subscription and he won't have to pay a fortune to the cable company every month in order to聽see which beloved character Game of Thrones character will be brutally murdered next!聽And if he's feeling extra bold, maybe he can cancel cable altogether. Just聽聽and tell him you've got him covered for a year of HBO programming. If he can save money AND keep up with all his favorite HBO shows, chances are he'll be a very happy camper.
3. A聽聽-- $79.99 from聽
Amazon Prime is seriously a godsend.聽If you're a Prime member and you order Dad a Fitbit today, you'll get it by the time you have to meet up for Sunday brunch. My dad was in town last weekend and he couldn't stop showing me all the cool things his Fitbit does ("Oooh we walked 22,000 steps today!" "Looks like I got seven hours of sleep last night, but two of them were restless!" "That bike ride burned 300 calories!" etc, etc). I'm not saying my father's hobbies and passions are indicative of ALL fathers hobbies and passions, but he does have pretty good taste.
4. A shaving bouquet
Mother's Day is all about classic flower arrangements, but who says Dad doesn't want a little piece of the bouquet action? Tweak tradition this Father's Day by making your Dad a DIY shaving bouquet!
Of course you can also sign him up for shaving clubs like聽,听听辞谤听, but if you're running low on time and want to present him with a physical gift on Sunday, make a pit stop at your local聽,听,听听辞谤听聽and pick up some fancy-looking shaving supplies.聽Arrange them in a cool mug (like a聽), tie a bow around it, and present it to dad on the big day. Pro tip: T.J.Maxx,听聽and Marshalls all have some fancy designer聽shaving soaps, creams and oils for sale on the cheap.聽When I want to make it look like I spent a lot of money on a face, hair or body product without actually doing so, those stores are my first stop every time.
