Shopping for dad can be difficult and when your on a budget it can be even more challenging. Here are a few ideas that are sure to make every dad happy. ( Or, if stumped at the stores, try taking dad to one of the many Father’s Day events going on around town.)

For the wine loving dad: $40
Wine coolers are expensive and can’t be taken everywhere, but with Ravi ($40) dad can cool his wine to perfection.

    Great ideas especially during these trying economic times!

  2. It is better to sit down than to stand it is better to lie down than to sit but death is the best of all.

  3. I think the best tool I have in my tool kit is the battery charged cordless drill, I just dismantled my home and did a total renovation and the power tool I used probably the most and was really useful was my battery charged cordless drill. I think for every project in the home I had the battery powered cordless drill in my hand. There’s no doubt that the restoration project would have taken twice the time if I didnt have my favorite tool.

  4. Cool post. I’m having a little trouble seeing your site in Safari though.. the tables are not lining up right.
