Or better yet, instead of giving me unused ideas, tell me what you've given your dad or your bf/gf's dad in the past...please and thank you.

books, magazine subcription...do they have a certain hobby?
my dad is into golphing and hockey so stuff related to that.

They are stereotypical dads....tools, fishing, hockey, music. The end. But I've done everything or its been done by someone else.

I think I might have to settle w/clothing.

Been done...both of our dads still have the colognes we bought for them a few years ago...at least I know that my dad does. (he has too many bottles). But hmmm....maybe his dad needs some.

if they're hockey fans then head to staples beleive it or not.

they have this plaque for like 30 bucks or something and it has four jerseys on it....whichever team you like

you pick your three fave players and the fourth one has their last name on it.

umm...

gift certificates always work to:
sears
canadian tire
clothing stores
music stores
airlines

ummm a dvd player, cd player, cds, tools, toolboxes, clothes, shoes, tickets to a giants game, nice jersey, hats, shavers, boxers, socks (dads never seem to buy stuff like this...well my dad doesnt...my mom always has to buy him the necessities...)

$100 gift certificate @ Brandy's. :y:

^^ Haha...omg, I'd die if I knew my dad went to Brandy's...one of those old dirty Asian men.... :sick:

Thanks for the ideas guys...=)

Krista--I sell those in my store too! So he'd think I got it for cheap cheap. But gift certificates sound tempting...

if your dad is into cooking buy him a cook book or cooking stuff and make a big basket full of stuff!

im buyin my family all stuff from gap, banana republic or old navy :c-tard: already have my eye set on a jacket to get for my dad. clothes for fathers really well.. my dad hardly shops and i know he'll be wearing it.

bfs eh? not like id ever had to get a gift for one, but im all for personal made gifts. they're more intimate and fun. ummmm.. if i had a bf id make each other write a wishlist and swap it.

^^bf's DAD...=) I never really have a problem buying for my baby...he makes 'very subtle' hints as to what he wants every time a holiday creeps near...haha

It's the dads! I'm still thinking about buying my dad fish...haha...maybe a Nemo.

And maybe I'll buy clothing for the remainder of the present.

And my bf can figure out what his dad wants, buy it, and just put my name on the card (HA! Like THAT would ever happen...)
