Xmas gifts for Dad

HELP!! I have no idea what to get my Dad aka the man who has EVERYTHING!! He doesn't really have hobbies other than going wine tasting (which he and my step-mom do like every weekend) and traveling.

Help what are you all getting papa-dukes??

Dads are SO hard. My dad is the worst- we're just getting him a GC to a running store since he's always buying so many shoes. For FIL we got him a new ipod.

Check out personalizationmall.com- they have alot of great ideas.

I tried once but he is a wine snob and said he likes to choose his own

Re: Xmas gifts for Dad

how about a gift certificate to a bed & breakfast out east so they could make a weekend out of their wine tasting trips?

BIL bought his parents a gift card that could be used at almost 300 different bed & breakfast places around the country ... i don't remember what it was called though.

Re: Xmas gifts for Dad

i'm in the same boat...
my father HATES technology...
he has every cd ever made- my mother got him a g/c to looneytunes
he likes to fish, but has everything and he still has the g/c's from his birthday
he doesn't like clothes
my brother always gets him a case of beer


so what else is there?


i hate that dads are SO difficult!
esp now that its a 'from the 2 of us' gift... back when i was single, it was a little easier, i got my father a mug and had it engraved with 'i can hear louder' and another saying 'i love you' i got him an american tale on vhs one year...



how is your father with clothes??

Wine Fridge? Wine of the month club? I've gotten both of those for my dad and he loved both!

Otherwise, Modell's is having a HUGE sale.

We got my dad tickets to see The Temptations and the Four Tops at Westbury Music Fair. Maybe checkout ticketmaster and see if there are any music groups he likes coming to town?

Also, for my dad's birthday, we got him tix to the Spring Doo Wop Extravaganza also at Westbury Music Fair (don't know if your dad is into that type of music).
