Ideas for the Perfect Father's Day Gift

Finding ideas for a Mother’s Day gift is easy, but Dads pose a challenge to even the most seasoned shoppers.  The traditional gifts – tie a tie, a golf club, a baseball hat – just don’t seem to cut it anymore.

Here’s a list of unique Father’s Day gifts for the sportster dad, the Star Wars geek Dad, the party Dad, the tech Dad and the sentimental Dad.

1.  An iPhone Case with the Chicago Cubs logo

Best Buy, 1561 S. Randall Road, Algonquin, has the case and its website has Chicago White Sox cases. A very cool item is the iPhone case bottle opener, but you’ll have to find that online. There will be college sports team logos available soon on that case. 

2. Star Wars Mimobot USB Flash Drives

These are too cute! They look like little Star Wars figures, all the classics, but are flash drives. They are hard to find in stores so you may have to act quickly to order one online at this website. 

3. Keg O Rator Beer Dispenser

If your Dad loves beer, he’ll love this mini-barrel keg. It’s a bit pricey, but Dad is worth it. It’s available on Walmart’s website.

4. Home Theater Goodies

Lucky for you that the Huntley Outlet Center has a 11800 Factory Shops Blvd., which features the latest in home theater/sound equipment. Its website features items for different budgets.

5. A Sweet Remembrance

If your Dad is a big teddy bear, he might like a special memento. Things Remembered, in Spring Hill Mall, has all kinds of items, like photo frames, that can be engraved as you wait. To get a complete list of items, go to their website here.
