Father’s Day Gift Ideas
for a great father's day gift there are tons of items you can purchase for him in budget. Here are a few of our favorites:
USB Typewriter: Etsy is selling this neat USB typewriter, perfect for the senior dads out there who hate touching keyboards. Here's a brief breakdown:
The typewriter has been converted to a USB Keyboard using the USB Typewriter(TM) electronics I invented (See USBTypewriter.com for details). The following functions are USB enabled: all letters, numerals, and punctuation marks, shift, capslock, return carriage, and spacebar. Note that most typewriters do not have the numeral "1", and this one is no exception. No special drivers or software is necessary. For more information about the modification, visit USBTypewriter.com.
The best part: it works for the iPad too!
PRICE: 300.00 + tax & shipping
Survival Kit in a Can: For the dad who is a geek and an outdoorsman, this Survival Kit in a Can from Thinkgeek is perfect. Not only is it waterproof, but it includes all these items for survival:
one of each of the following items: non-aspirin pain reliever, adhesive bandage, alcohol prep pad, antibiotic ointment, book of matches, compass, chewing gum, sugar, salt, energy nugget, duct tape, fire starter cube, first aid instructions, fish hook & line, note paper, pencil, razor blade, safety pin, reflective signal surface, tea bag, waterproof bag, whistle, and wire clip.
For under ten bucks you could give your dad some survival love.
Price: 9.99 + tax & shipping
Bacon Wallet: From Popdeluxe comes the bacon wallet. This wallet is great for those dads who love to be different and love to carry bacon with them. Although inedible, it's a cool conversation piece and brings the phrase "bring home the bacon" to a literal sense.
Price: 9.50 + tax & shipping
Movie Gift Certificates ONLINE: Most movie theater companies, like Fandango are sporting gift certificates that you can print at home or email to your dad. If you live a couple hundred or thousand miles away, send your dad a nice Father's day email with any denomination amount to use at the movie theater toward tickets or food. Not only will he love you, but he gets to watch what he wants.
Price: No charge for setup or print/email
Whether you can spend a couple hundred or just five bucks there's a gift idea out there for everyone. Happy Father's Day!
