We have been speaking on the subject of Father’s Day quite a bit around here. We don’t want to sound repetitive, but it is coming up this Sunday. So for all of you that are still stuck on gift ideas I thought I would provide helping hand. Here are my top 5 Father’s Day Gifts!

All stuff that I personally, would very much like to receive.

1. Land’ End Basic Cotton T-Shirts - $14.50 buy 3 and save $2.50 each!

Who doesn’t need a regular tshirt refresh? I prefer a new round of tshirts approximately twice a year. I like the comfort, but have to keep myself looking good and put together don’t you know. Land’s End makes a great shirt. 100% cotton, sewn side seams for a more comfortable fit. Resists fading, pilling, wrinkling, shrinkage and staining.

3.  Apple 1GB iPod shuffe - Unbelievable price of $27 at eCost!

I am a big iPhone devotee, however I have found that while I am exercising worrying about dropping my expensive toy messes with my concentration. The tiny shuffle is what I need in this situation. Just clip this tiny wearable digital music player to your sleeve, your belt or your gym shorts for a little music wherever you go. Offered for the almost unbelievable price of $27.00 from eCost.

5.Nike Air Edge Trainer 08

A decent pair of trainers (or not) can make all the difference in the world as to whether I make it to the gym or not. Another item that I need refreshed every year, if not twice. The Air Edge Trainer is a simple training shoe providing everything that one needs and everything I don’t. Lightweight mesh with synthetic overlays. Reinforced stability zones. Forefoot and rear foot Nike Air Phylon midsole, Ortholite cushioned sock liner and solid rubber outsole with multi-directional traction pattern.

When I’m shopping for a gift for someone that I really care about, I get somewhat obsessive trying to find that perfect idea. What I mean is, that I will try to find an item that the person will of course appreciate but may never buy for themselves. I’m speaking of the left-of-center here. Father’s Day is just a few days away and I’ve come to the conclusion that gifts for this occasion have become so standardized. I spoke last week how I would really appreciate a gift of a monthly beer of the month. I still think this is a great idea, but how about beer brewing equipment so your father could make his own? I know several people who have pursued this hobby as of late, and the all seem to really enjoy it. However, I know even more people who have mused out loud to me, about how it’s a hobby they would like to pursue. Do you catch my drift here? This is a gift idea that your dad would really like, yet would not pursue without a little kick start! Perfect!

There is a rising popularity and recognition of beer brewing among American men and this has brought about a boom in the beer making industry. There are a lot of father’s that love to drink beer, they often have their own brand or type of beer they like, but giving your father a six pack is not really a personal gift at all. Most father’s like some time on their own after a long day of work and that is one of the reasons brewing your own beer has become so popular the last ten years. And another good reason most fathers will like beer brewing equipment as personalized gifts is that it also saves them money in the end. And you will save money by taking advantage of our beer and wine hobby coupons for the Beer and Wine Hobbyist or check out these wine coupons.

I am a big fan of having themed dinner parties. I know what that sounds like…no there are no costumes involved! No usually the themes revolve around the refreshments served. In particular, the drinks. I like to pick a specific cocktail, and this is what I serve to everyone invited. I usually peruse bartender recipe books, and come up with something a little left of center. A selection that most people would never think to order themselves at a bar or restaurant. The idea usually goes over really well. People enjoy it. I can also do something a little fancy, but since I’m the only one preparing one type of drink it is much easier on me and I have more time to socialize with my guests.

The weather is heating up, occasions like these call for drink recipes that reflect the season. Variations on the margarita theme are always popular. If your father shares any of my “wish to entertain” traits, I suggest you keep this in mind come Father’s Day. I have come across some great Williams-Sonoma Coupons.

Williams-Sonoma has this fantastic Premium Margaritaville Frozen Concoction Maker available at a heavily discounted price this season. Create the perfect margarita by simply measuring the ingredients and ice, then flipping a switch. With its brushed-nickel finish and stainless-steel accents, this premium version of the Original Margaritaville Maker features automatic settings for margaritas, daiquiris, coladas and smoothies. Its clear-plastic ice hopper has the capacity to produce two pitchers of refreshing beverage. Unlike a blender, this appliance features two powerful mechanisms: one for shaving (not chopping) the ice, the other for quickly blending just the right proportion of ingredients and ice into its glass pitcher. Because the downtime between batches is brief, the pitcher can be quickly refilled - a great benefit when you’re entertaining a crowd.

Not only are they offering a discount of $150, but if you order now they will throw in a free gift valued at $50! How about that?!To check out all the exclusive discount deals and free coupons for Williams-Sonoma - Click here.

Wow! This sounds to me like a party I would like to go too! Dad’s barbecues this summer will be hard to beat!

Father’s Day will be upon us in just a few short weeks. No this is not hint, actually it’s a bold and forthright statement! You better come up with something good! Seriously though, this year I was asked to give an account of what I would like to receive for Father’s Day 2009.

• Music - I can’t get enough of it. I’m somewhat of record collector. I have been since I was a kid. I amass and consume music at a ridiculously quick rate. My tastes however tend to be pretty eclectic and esoteric however, so don’t presume to pick out the music for me. Let me do it. A iTunes or Amazon download gift card would be very much appreciated. See? I told you I was going to concentrate on the affordable!

• Headphones to listen to all that new music. I’ve been thinking for quite awhile that I could really use a pair of true audiophile headphones. Now my iPod earbuds that i currently use do the job, but I would really like something much more dynamic. They are really quite reasonable in price as well. One can find a very nice pair of premium headphones for well under

• USB Record Player. Not to beat the “I like music drum” overmuch, but this is something I’ve been wanting for a long time. I have a lot of vinyl albums. Unfortunately due to space limitations most live in our storage space, not the house proper. In any case, like most people these days I find it much more convenient to consume my music in the digital format. That being said, I own a lot of very cool records. I have fantasies of spending many a happy Saturday converting them to MP3 format. I need a USB record player to accomplish this. The prices on these units have drastically come down this past year. They are not expensive at all. Please family, if you are reading…help me live my dream.

• Beer. I really like beer. No I’m not suggesting that my family arrive home with a six pack “Here you go Daddy! Have fun!” No I’m actually thinking of a Beer Club were I receive a new selection every month that I wouldn’t normally run across. I personally am very fond of Belgian Trappist ales, in case anyone is paying attention.

• LCD TV. Ok this a little bit extravagent, but not really. The prices on flat screen television have really fallen. We don’t need the biggest one on the block, a modest size will do. Oh and if I attach it to the wall, think of all the space this will free up! Actually when I think about it, this isn’t so much a gift for me, but for the whole family! Yes I know, I am the most selfless of souls.

• The Roku Digital Video Player. Noticing a theme here? Yes I enjoy gadgets and media, so sue me. But really, who doesn’t enjoy movies? With the Roku Digital Video Player dad will have access 40,000 + choices on demand. No need to visit the video store this Father’s Day. You’ll have the Amazon on Demand library and the Netflix library at your disposal.

• A weekend getaway, would be really nice. If there is one thing I like more than playing with my toys at home, it’s getting away from home for a little bit. I’m not speaking of an extravagant two week tour across the continent. No just a few days away and out of town, that would be really nice. I

• No ties. Yes anything other than a tie would be just fine.

Father’s are often overlooked when it comes to parenting. Too often all accolades go to mother’s and while no one could ever argue the pivotal role moms play in rearing children, my Dad has undoubtedly shaped every aspect of my life. From the way I view the world, to the type of guys I date!

That said I always make it a point to find my Dad something affordable and functional for Father’s Day. He is not a label junkie and leans toward practicality.
