I need Mens items for £1 for school fair

If anyone can help? We do a Fathers Day gift stall at our school, that we started last year. We bulk ordered some items from Homebase (Torch keyrings, measuring tapes) to sell at £2 last year. We need something different this year. I've bought loads of things in the sales for £1, but they need to go into our christmas present room.
If anyone has seen anything I can order loads of for £1 each as a suitable present. Just seen some Golf and football money boxes that might be suitable, but need some other choices.

have you tied £1 shops, B&M, Poundstretchers (bargain shops I guess im saying) I work with the PTA and have found really quite nice ties for £1. The other thing weve done which is very popular was give the children blanc keyrings to design themselves. Have you a crafty crocodiles catalogue (google) they may well have ideas in.Mad Mum to 3 wonderful children, 2 foster kittens and 2 big fat cats that never made it to a new home!
Aiming to loose 56 pounds this year. Total to date 44.5 pounds 12.5 to go. Slimming World Rocks!0 -
Thanks will google that catalogue. We don't have B&M down here in Kent, but when visiting my in-laws in Manchester it's a must! Got a lot for our mothers day and xmas present room in there. Men are so hard to buy for!0

Try Home Bargains as well - the stock comes and goes and usually its very cheap but you never have any idea what will be in there. They currently have some notebooks which would be suitable for men. They are a touch smaller than A5 in size with different wording on the front I bought one with 'in hindsight a three wood was the wrong club' in a speech bubble - all for the bargain price of 29p.
You could also try your local Asda they have some 'shot to go' items reduced to £1.00. You put your own photo into pens, keyrings, notebooks etc.0 -
The pound/99p type shops usually do nice smellies (lynx stuff) which are always usefull.

Last week I saw that Poundland had Lynx Bullet (deodorant) 2 packs like this http://www.boots.com/en/Lynx-Bullet-Dark-Temptation-2-Pack_859316/ (normally about £1.95) in.A waist is a terrible thing to mind.0

Thanks kitschkitty, I bought some of those Lynx bullets in Home Bargains when I was in Manchester for the xmas present room already!! Love Home Bargains wish we had them down here. Thanks everyone else, will try Asda and have another hunt round Home Bargains when we're up there at Easter. Highlight of my trip!0
