If you have a dad like mine, then you know the STRUGGLE it is to wrangle any sort of gift out of them. So if you have a difficult dad like mine, or want to get your father-figure a surprise gift but don’t know where to start, here are 3 ideas to get you off the naughty list.

1. Watch

A very tried and true gift, a watch is timeless. Depending on how active they are, or if they want to accept calls off it, a traditional or smart watch would surely bring a smile to his face (especially because it’s not on his dime)

2. Game controller

Now… a console is a lot of money to fork up. So instead, opt for a game controller for whatever console he likes most. Bonus points if you buy a video game to go with it.

3. Cologne

Now, potentially this could be a bit pricey depending on your dad’s taste. I know mine only likes luxury cologne so… this is gonna be a group effort kind of gift, but you can always make a man feel good if you get him something to smell good with.
