In just a few short weeks, it will be Father’s Day and if you’re looking for the perfect gift for the important men in your life, then you’ve come to the right place. There’s a misconception that gifts need to be expensive in order to be meaningful. Some gifts are better than others not because of the price tag, but because they were thoughtfully given.
A little bit of planning can go a long way when planning and buying gifts for Father’s Day. Men are not the easiest to shop for, so this article curates a short list of ideas that you need to check out. Take a look at the list below for budget-friendly ideas.
Coffee Grinder
For dads who have a certain preference and style for their brewed coffee, an electric coffee grinder will be the perfect gift for them. There are tons of already-ground coffee beans in the grocery, but if those don’t pass muster to your dad’s or partner’s standard, then help them brew their perfect cup of coffee.
So why use a grinder at all? Simply put, a coffee grinder helps grind the coffee beans and if you have one of your own, you can alter the consistency of the grinds depending on how you like it. Fine-tuning can take a while, but if the men in your life already know how they like their coffee, it’s up to you to buy them the kind of coffee grinder they want.
Some coffee grinders are better than others, but they can be expensive. Here is a helpful guide on how to look for a suitable coffee grinder.
BBQ Grill Tools Set
When backyard barbecues are not complete without the men commandeering the grill station, remind Dad that he is appreciated with brand new grill tools set. These accessories will be his new pride and joy as he cooks the meat to perfection.
Barbecue grill tools sets come in a different number of pieces, and it can be confusing especially if you’re someone who doesn’t know anything about grilling. You can ask your dad directly about his preference or ask advice from others who are familiar with grilling tools. For options, check out this list.
USB-C Travel Adapter
For the techie dad who’s frequently away on business or can’t leave without his trusty gadgets, a USB-C multiport travel adapter is something he’ll appreciate. The ports will definitely help him reduce the number of adapters he has to carry with him and therefore lighten his luggage. Plus, the adapter streamlines every gadget he owns so that he won’t forget anything when he’s charging.

Subscription boxes have become popular over the years and you shouldn’t miss out this Father’s Day because there are specials you should look out for.

Book of Dad Jokes
There’s a reason dad jokes are what they are: corny and hilarious, like what loving dads tend to be like when they tease their loved ones. Help the dads in your life up to their joke game by giving them a book with a curated list of horrible jokes.
Expect to have these horribly hilarious jests to be sprung upon an unfortunate relative or you on the next family get-together. There’s nothing quite like the gift of humor, after all.
Wireless Headphones
No matter if your dad is a fitness buff, slowly starting, or just an occasional runner, he will appreciate working out more with headphones he can use to listen to music or a podcast. The wireless variety is better for those who are exercising because the lack of wires means fewer obstacles and almost no fussing.
If you have a little bit more of cash to spare, gift him with a music-streaming subscription to go along with the headphones. If he uses his mobile phone or a dedicated portable music player, make sure the device is out of his way by giving him an armband to anchor the gadget. You can give your dad a smartwatch or band as well.
An Act of Love
Not all gifts have to be tangible; you can very well surprise your dad with an act of love just as any material present can. You know your dad best, so find out if he has an outstanding chore that he hates doing, and do that in his stead. If you’re good at cooking, you can make him a special Father’s Day meal, or if your forte is baking, a batch of his favorite cookies will make his day.
How Do You Make Your Dad Feel Special?
As your father’s daughter, only you can answer this question. What are his favorite foods, items, and things to do? Father’s Day gifts don’t have to cost an arm and a leg to procure because you can get gifts that are reasonably priced and will make him just as glad.
