Dads. What on earth do we buy for them? And how can we get a deal? Here are 10 Father’s Day gifts dad will love, all under $100.
When it comes to Father’s Day, dads are generally pretty hard to shop for. They either don’t want anything, insist they already have everything, or won’t tell you what they do want.
But getting them a coffee mug or necktie can feel pretty boring year after year, and we really want to get our dads a gift that they will know is from the heart, that they’ll actually use and appreciate. They absolutely do not want us to spend too much money on them, so the secret is to get them a gift that is affordable but that also speaks to their interests, talents, or passions.
Whether that involves them relaxing at home, cooking, or participating in their favorite form of exercise, there’s a great gift out there for them. And we’ve rounded them all up for you here.
