Christmas Gifts for Men

Posts: 16 Forumite
So as someone who has a wife and therefore usually not much need for buying Christmas stuff for men, however in some sort of genius move my wife has suggested to her family we do a "secret santa" as our ever growing family is getting expensive, I have to buy for her brother, was thinking of lots of manly things to get him, here are a couple of deals I have seen, any other ideas gratefully received, I want to get about 5 gifts for him:
ebay item number - 190685524536
and
ebay item number - 160803838017
Please help! By the way doing secret Santa is fun, saves money I suppose, but only having a £25 budget isn't, either I find out some good ideas or he gets 25 things from Poundland!

Why are you getting 5 gifts for him. Why not just one for a tenner.
It sorta defeats the object of saving money by doing a secret santa doesn't it.make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.0 -
because i want him to have more than one thing to open, one is boring, so want to be thrifty and get 4/5 cheaper ones and yes, Scottish Lass, those cufflinks are awesome!0

I'd rather have the "1 x £25" gift than "5 x £5" ones if I'm honest (I'm a girl though, maybe blokes like quantity over quality?)"Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one's living at it" Einstein 19510

I'd rather have the 25 quid cash hehe0

Unless you know he'd actually wear the cufflinks or is a Lego fan,then aren't they just tat0

Not being funny, but where's the grabbit? This might've been better posted in the special occasions board?Man who run into airport turn-styles is going to Bangkok

According to my brother you can't go wrong with a good book, chocolate and his favourite whisky/tipple of choice. A bit boring, but genuinely his preference.
Otherwise unless he's regularly a cufflink wearer they'll go in the back of the drawer never to be seen again.
Although I did get him a lord of the manor certificate as well (cheap groupon deal) as he is generally completely up himself.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.0 -
Shaving Sets. Can't really go wrong unless he use electric shaver.0

yeah was torn as too which board but figured those deals are good so stuck it on here. I think he would wear the cufflinks and everyone needs a wallet so then was stuck, maybe some whisky!0
