Time/Money/Brad Tuttle, 6/17/16. "5 cheap and easy Father's Day gifts that dads actually want."
| Possibly give Dad a rest from this! |
| Or, hiding on a Sunday without national politics might be good. |
Tackle Some Chores. Another way to give dad some much-needed rest—perhaps while he’s literally resting—is to tend to the household or yard chores that he usually handles. ... Be careful about over-organizing any of his stuff, however: If he can’t locate items after you’re done, your gift has turned into a headache.
Feed Him Un-Fancy Food. Most dads love a good steak dinner, right? Not on Father’s Day, according to a new Zagat survey, which surveyed just dads (Thank You!) about what they really wanted for Father’s Day. ... When the question was asked specifically about where to eat for Father’s Day, 56% preferred grilling at home, 18% chose a basic neighborhood restaurant, and just 14% went with the high-end steakhouse.
Dad Coupons. This is the gift that keeps on giving, and that conveniently requires the giver to do very little upfront.
Do Something He (and Maybe Only He) Loves. If there are activities that your father enjoys, and that he’s occasionally tried but failed to get others interested in, Father’s Day is a very good excuse to be a good sport for the old man. ... This too is another “gift” that requires almost no effort upfront, and it’s totally OK if the man of the house never takes you up on the offer.
BONUS IDEA: Maybe Just Leave Him Alone. See above, in which 14% of surveyed dads said their ideal Father’s Day celebration would be heavy on 'me time'." Read more.
