my dad, very hard to buy for.....not into anything in particular as he spends 5 days a week living away from home (travelodge) for work and when he is home at the weekends he just chills with my mum or goes out for a coffee. He is a coffee lover but they have a expensive coffee machine and he buys his beans in London (special shop apparently). This was my only thoughtful idea for him and getting a bit stuck as he is very particular about clothes, shows etc...was going to go for socks but really feels like im not buying him anything useful. And if I ask him what he wants he says 'oh I will have a think and let you know' well he never does, no matter how much I badger him.
He has expressed interest in getting a telescope but im sure the one he wants will be way way way over my budget.
So any ideas for a 54 year old man (he dont wear aftershave either...god he is impossible!!)
would be very very gratefully recieved.
TIA
Why not make him a little basket of goodies for when he is away from home ? Put a few bits n' bobs of his favourite things in-new mug (no need to find the coffee beans!)/any chocolate/biscuits he may like. Photoframe with family picture in/travel sized shower gel etc. (M & S have got 3 for 2 on mens toiletries). Buy a nice box or basket and print a title off the computer on it ..like Dad's a little Piece of Home Basket...or something like that. Can be as expensive/inexpensive as you want but still adds a personal touch. Good luck ! This Christmas stuff is
hard!!:):hello: SHARING THE LOVE (OF A BARGAIN) x0 -
