This Sunday across the country we'll celebrate our dads. Dads work hard to raise us right, and often times don't give themselves the downtime they need. Why not celebrate yours with a nice gift of beauty…or, er, handsome? After all, dads need some pampering, too.
Here are a few simple, economical ways to spoil your pops this Father's Day.
FOR THE ACTIVE DAD
A Spa Day isn't just for ladies. Get your active dad a sports massage. Save money by searching through
Spafinder and using some of these money saving
Spafinder coupons.
FOR THE OUTDOORSY DAD
Sunscreen and bug spray have grown up. Try this Does-it-all miracle from Kiss My Face:
Sunswat Waterproof Sun Block & Natural Insect Repellent. Pair this with some flies for fishing or S'mores ingredients, and you've got your adventurous father hooked up for life in the great outdoors.
FOR THE OLD-FASHIONED DAD
Gift your old fashioned dad with the perfect tools for a perfect shave. May I suggest a bottle of
Clubman Pinaud After Shave Cologne and a
Silver Plated Shave Set, for that fresh from the barber look? If Clubman smacks as too old school, you could try a slight update with
The Art of Shaving Carry On Kit. Both smooth sets will run you less than $50.
FOR THE METROSEXUAL DAD
For your hip, urban dad, buy him the miracle hair product of choice for thousands of well-heeled dudes:
Bumble and Bumble Sumotech. If he doesn't already use it, he'll be in love, and if he does, he'll be glad for the re-up. Pair this with a subscription to Esquire, and your dad will be looking like a million bucks.
With all these gifts totaling less than $50, I'm sure you can find a way to pay tribute to dear old dad without paying tribute to your credit card company. To all the dads out there, thanks for all you do!
