Some men are notoriously hard to please. My husband, he is not fun to shop for. I look and look and think I’ve found something he’ll like and he never really gets excited. Now, give him a $3,000 electric bass – he’d do cartwheels! But, that’s not really in our budget. So, with Christmas coming, I’ve put together a list that any man would be happy to get! These 7 gifts are all thoughtful and can definitely come in handy when trying to please that man in your life!
1. iPad
iPads are perfect for browsing the internet, shopping, and simply catching up on the day’s news. You can even play games on the iPad, amongst other things. There’s a model to suit all budgets, so you can buy the newest model or the oldest model; both are good choices.
2. Books
Do they like to read? You could get them a thoughtful book. If they like a good story, head over to Goodreads to find out which have the best reviews. If they like self help books, history or a good autobiography – you’re sure to find it!
3. Watch
A watch is a great present for any occasion. You just need to make sure you pick the right one! Take a look at the other jewelry and clothing they wear to get an idea of the style they’d like. The Shinola collection has some great inspiration.
4. Digital Camera
Digital cameras aren’t really considered these days, as mobile phones have pretty good cameras on them already. However, if the hard to please man in your life doesn’t have a great phone or likes to take high quality pictures, it could be worth treating them to a digital camera.
5. Luxury Aftershave
Aftershave can be thrown to one side and forgotten about if you aren’t careful, so why not treat the hard to please man to a real luxury aftershave? A nice aftershave is a a wonderful gift. The smell will last a lot longer, and it’ll smell better, too!
6. Spotify Subscription
Got a music fan? A Spotify subscription should do the trick. They can listen to pretty much any music they like on the computer and all of their portable devices for a set fee per month. You could buy them a gift card for 1 month, 6 months, or 1 year.
7. Subscription to Their Favorite Magazine
Do they have a magazine that they read often? Get them a subscription! Something will come through the door for them each month, which is like a little surprise in itself and the gift that keeps on giving!
Will you be buying one of these gifts this year? Let us know in the comments!
