Need gift ideas

I have figured out what to get everyone on my Christmas list except my boyfriend's dad. He is hard to show for ... even my boyfriend and his mom haven't figured out what to get him yet.

For his mom, I am making a wreath. She loves crafty things like that. My options are to either get some snacky thing (holiday chocolates, bake bread, etc) and give both the wreath and the snacky thing to his mom and dad as a joint gift. Of figure something else out.

He isn't much of a drinker.

He likes horse racing and football. He is an accountant getting ready to retire.

Any thoughts?

Re: Need gift ideas

  • Oh. And bf and I have been together a bit over a year and I am in the process of moving in with him.
  • What about a nice money clip?  Does he drink wine?  A nice bottle of wine is a good gesture.  Coffee?  Something from Starbucks or a custom coffee blend is good too.

  • If you do the joint gift maybe add some lottery tickets

  • Does he like a specific football team?  You could get him a shirt or something of the sort.

    Magazine subscription?

    Coffee table book of horse racing stuff?

    Dads are tough.  Always. 

  • Edible gifts are always good, like Achase suggested. Gourmet coffee, chocolates... something he loves but wouldn't normally buy on his own.
