Holiday Gift Guide For The Hard To Buy For Man

Christmas is fast approaching and soon it will be time to start the search for the perfect gift for the men in your life. Now that online shopping is here, with a little pre-planning, gift buying is much easier. Here are a few ideas to help make shopping easier.

  1. If you are lucky, the man will have a favorite sport or sports team. With a little imagination, unique gift ideas can be found. Two good online sources are www.mcsports.com and www.shop.com . Some ideas include team socks, team pillow and throw, or a team baseball cap, especially if it has a light up flashing team logo.
  2. Does he have a favorite TV series? How about purchasing a season of the series on DVD. The website www.overstock.com is a good resource for this.
  3. Is the man on your list someone that dresses up every day to go to work? Someone that has an occasion to wear ties? There are so many neat ideas these days for tie buying. The site www.neckties.com has lots of choices, a clearance sale area, bow ties, and XL ties.
  4. Does he like to play video games? But is not into the high tech games that are out now? Bring back old memories with the Atari Retro Set – the Atari 2600 we all know and love with 40 games including Asteroids, Millipede, Centipede, Pitfall, Pong, and more. One website with this is www.firststreetonline.com .
  5. Is he a car lover? How about some personalized floor mats. Check them out at www.mailordershoppe.com .
  6. For the young man out on his own a care basket is a great idea. Buy a hamper or clothes basket and fill it with the staples of bachelorhood – macaroni and cheese; ravioli; Oodles of Noodles; and don’t forget the dessert Ho Ho’s; Twinkies; and some healthy fair: Peanut Butter and Jelly; Applesauce.
  7. Gift certificates are great when you have a general idea of what he likes but not specifics of what he needs, movies, reading, home repair. Almost everywhere has gift certificates now, Barnes amp; Noble, Netflix, Home Depot, movie theaters, restaurants. Try www.giftcertificates.com .
  8. Purchasing a car detailing for him is also a wonderful idea, there are even mobile car detailing shops now that will come to them. See www.detailingdirectory.com/mobiledetailing.html for places around the country.
  9. Clocks come in many shapes and sizes these days, for the muscle car lover, there is the American Muscle Car Clock featuring 12 original muscle car recordings heard at the top of each hour or the John Deere clock, both available at www.target.com .
  10. Still don’t know what to get? Need something for the man that has everything, but is still a kid at heart? How about a set of marshmallow guns, www.drugstore.com has them in stock, and don’t forget the extra marshmallows!
