Fa la la la la! It’s holiday time and I couldn’t be more excited! It’s probably no surprise to you that I’m a big gift giver. I do everything big! I la-la-la-love giving gifts to the special man in my life, but sometimes it can be hard to find a good dude gift. I mean, guys have it so easy! All women want is something sparkly with a heart felt card. But guys are tougher. So, if you’re having trouble finding your man the perfect gift, here’s a quick cheat sheet of gifts any man will love.
-
Lingerie
I know this is kind of a gift for you, but believe me, he’ll appreciate it. Make it personal by getting a cute matching set in his favorite color. And it never hurts if he has to unwrap you, not a box, to get his gift. Check out the clearance section of Victoria’s Secret. They have a lot of nice, and naughty, selections for very reasonable prices!
-
Meat
Men love meat. That’s a fact. I think it stems back to the fact that men are genetically programmed to hunt. Anyway, giving him the gift of meat will always go over big. I love those meat of the month clubs. It means that your gift continues throughout the year! Also, you can give him some coupons he can turn in for home-cooked meals of his meat, if you’re feeling extra generous.
-
Booze
Just like meat, men love booze. You can get him a fancy bottle of his favorite type of liquor, which he will definitely enjoy. You could also do a beer of the month club. Or you can get him a coupon for a road trip out to tour a local beer brewery. You do the driving so he can really enjoy the brews!
-
Sports tickets
Get your man a pair of tickets to one of his favorite sporting events. And I know that sports tickets can be really expensive, but there are some less expensive options. You can look online for season ticket holders who are trying to unload tickets to games they can’t attend or you can get tickets to a minor league, college or even high school championship game instead of the big leagues. Tell him that you’d be happy to go with him, but he can definitely take a buddy if he wants. Honestly, sometimes not having a girl there asking for the rules to be explained is gift enough!
-
Something girly
This may sound weird, but all of the men I’ve ever dated have secretly liked girly stuff, especially spas. Getting your man a pedicure or a facial or a massage might sound silly, but he’ll totally love it when he’s relaxing and drinking cucumber water.
Happy shopping, my loves. Let me know what you get your men!
