Not Your Standard Gift Ideas For Father's Day -

When it comes to mine in particular, he’s exceptionally picky.

So much so that he’ll go out of his way to return any gift that doesn’t serve him purpose.

…which I totally understand, yet if you’re the giver…ouch!

I’ve become clever with the kinds of gifts my dad will appreciate for the last (realistic) 17 years;

finding alternatives to the overdone present standards he wants nothing to do with (like a new tie..)

If you struggle with the same issue of not being able to impress or satisfy that man in your life,

then here are some out-of-the-box gifts you can surprise him (dad/father figure/husband) with this year.
