Undies or socks?

Written by BRAVEday team | Aug 31, 2016 12:00:00 PM

Funnily enough, I was talking with a group of Dad's the other morning about what they were doing on Sunday, and the majority of them really look forward to receiving socks and undies on Father's Day … let's face it, how many blokes actually go out to the mall to buy that sort of thing?!

Sometimes, Kmart specials are just not going to cut it.  As the years roll on, I find it harder and harder to think of a great gift idea for my dad, something that goes some way towards letting him know just how much I appreciate him.

So, what do you buy the man who has everything? Here are a few websites with some awesome ideas to get you on your way:

funkygifts.co.nz

From USB sticks, to VW Combi mugs to Fart Extinguishers (yep, that's an actual thing!) this site has every novelty item you could dream for if you have a dad with a GSOH (great sense of humour).

notsocks.co.nz

Next level novelties here - rear view mirror reversing cameras, home brew kits and electronic bits and pieces galore.

redballoon.co.nz

Got a dad that doesn't need anymore "stuff"? How about getting him an experience.  Learning to fly, Stunt car driving school, bungee jumping and so much more are all available here.

An alternative site for experience based gifts … from sailing to Waiheke exploring to aerobatic sports flights - something for every kind of dad.

Biscuits, delivered to the door.  Need I say more?

Most importantly, give your dad your time - this is probably the gift he will appreciate the most.
