Cool gift ideas for fathers day.

As it's fathers day this Sunday, I thought I'd put together a little post about gift ideas to buy for those special dads out there! 

Hope you enjoy!

Alcohol.

Now this probably isn't the most exciting of ideas however there are so many varieties of alcohol readily available now, that you can find some cool new bits and bobs. If your dad does like a little tipple there are loads of interesting beers, ciders and spirits to choose from in the alcohol section of your local supermarket, pick a few at random and put together a little hamper, he might stumble across something new that he really likes! I've done this little trick for multiple people and it always goes down well. You could also throw some snacks into the mix, making it the perfect hamper for him to enjoy chilling on the sofa one afternoon.

So. Much. Beer.

Tea, coffee and hot chocolate.

Now my dad doesn't drink alcohol however he really loves his coffee. There are SO many great coffees out there, again you could go to your local supermarket and pick out some random selections however I think going to your local coffee shop (Starbucks, Costa, Nero etc) and picking up a great blend could go down really well.

If you want to splurge a little, I would highly recommend buying a coffee machine. A few of us at work pitched in to buy a Dolce Gusto machine and it gets plenty of use. You buy pods of the desired coffee, tea or hot chocolate and pop it in, it heats the water at a touch of a button and a lovely fresh cup of whatever you pick comes out. I think for a coffee lover that doesn't want to spend too much time grinding coffee beans etc this would be great.

Don't you think it looks like a bird??

Novelty t-shirts.

Now I'm pretty sure your dad has something he loves. Be it a TV show, a film or film series, a book, a hobby etc there is always, always a novelty t-shirt to go with it! My dad absolutely loves The Simpsons and Family Guy, I think The Simpsons movie is the only movie he didn't fall asleep whilst watching. I actually bought my dad a novelty Family Guy t-shirt for Christmas and he loved it! Amazon is a great place to find t-shirts but I also love looking on the following couple of sites.

This is the t-shirt I got my dad for Christmas.

Gadgets

If your dad is into gadgets, you can always go for the usual picks, phones, camera's, tablets etc however these tend to be quite pricey, so for those on a budget, the novelty gadgets are fun and cheaper! I absolutely love Firebox for interesting and unique gifts, so I'll just pick out a couple of thing I would pick but head on over and check it out!
