Buying for a guy is pretty easy. All you have to do is find out what he likes, where he spends his free time and what his hobbies are. Boom there you have it.
Here is some easy questions that will help you get your gift idea juices flowing:
Does he like sports? If so, what is his favorite team(s)? Buy anything that has his favorite team(s). You can even look for unusual gifts that have the team logo. For example, one year I bought my husband Clemson Tiger stem valve caps for his truck. He loved them because it was something that you didn’t see very often. (Thinking outside of the box: buy tickets to see his favorite team play or buy something autographed by one of his favorite players). Below is some great ideas for a Clemson fan but you can click on any of the links to look up your own favorite sports team!
Does he like cars/trucks? What kind of car/truck does he drive? If so, you have plenty of options to choose from. For example, my husband drives a GMC truck so I could buy anything from mud flaps to floor mats to a steering wheel cover with GMC on it and he would appreciate it. You can also look for car tools that he made need or even a simple car care kit would be great! (Thinking outside of the box: buy a model car that looks like the car/truck he drives or buy tickets to a local car show). Click on any of the links below to find out what kind of gifts you can find for your special guy.
Is he a gamer? If so, buy him the latest and greatest game or game system out there. If you don’t know what it is, then buy him a gift card so he can get the game he wants. Other options include things like a new controller, a new gaming headset or a gaming chair so that he can relax while playing the game. (Thinking outside of the box: buy a two player game that you both would enjoy playing together or tickets for the next gamers event that shows all the new games coming out). Here are just a few of the gift ideas that you can find for your gamer, just click any of the links to find what you are looking for!
Is he the fixer-upper type? Well you can buy him things like tools, toolbox, shop vacuum or a workbench. Still pondering? Buy him a gift card to shop at his favorite big box store and let him go to town. (Thinking outside the box: Pay someone to help him with a big project or a yard service to help him with the yard).
Is he an entertainer? Then buy him things that he would like to use to entertain others. You can look at things like a grill, grill accessories, fire pit, home theater system, wireless speaker to play music or movie projector. (Thinking outside the box: Buy tickets to see his favorite band, to a holiday theater show or tickets to go see a new movie).
Is he all in technology? Look for things like an echo dot, google home hub, wireless headphones, Fitbit watch, security cameras or a hoverboard. (Thinking outside the box: Get him a year’s subscription to a technology magazine).
Is he the outdoorsy hunter/fisher type? For fishing think about things like a fish scale, lure kits, a new fishing rod, rod organizer or tackle box. For the hunter think about things like a range finder, backpack, hunting knifes, or a tree saw for small limbs. You can even find odor kits and emergency kits would be a great idea for any outdoorsman if you click on any of the links below. (Thinking outside the box: Plan a fishing or hunting trip with all expenses paid by you for him.)
If he has a hobby that he truly loves then see if there is a class offered at a local school (make sure his schedule allows for it) and pay for him to go. You can also get almost anything monogrammed so that it makes it special just for him.
See how easy it is once you find out what he likes. Yes he would still like the usual gifts like pajamas, socks, underwear, a wallet, a watch, shaving kit, bedroom shoes or a robe but this year try to go above and beyond.
