Father's Day is this coming Sunday. Guys are much more difficult to buy for than women. There just aren't nearly as many guy-oriented products out there, and you can only buy so many ties or barbecue tool sets.
Let's consider some of the traditional, stereotypical Father's Day gifts:
- A card that depicts a man hunting, fishing or sleeping in an easy chair
- Wallet
- Box of white cotton handkerchiefs (in finer, more old-fashioned stores)
- A case of beers of the world
- A box of mustards of the world
- A coin-separating machine
- DVDs of any mafia film, Full Metal Jacket, Apocalypse Now, Almost Perfect the original Three Stooges films, Caddyshack, National Lampoon's Animal House, Dirty Harry, Pulp Fiction -- you get the idea.
- Tools
- Cordless appliances
- Sports stuff
