my dad's b-day is today and he's the hardest person in the WORLD to shop for! Chat Icon

he has hardly any hobbies, he doesn't smoke or drink (that's a good thing though!), and he is not super into electronics.

I just bought him a bunch of summer clothes (he lives in summer clothes year round) at Marshall's and a Santoku knife... hope that helps someone with ideas for a Dad that's just as hard to shop for as mine!

I would say between 50-100 for each family member's birthday.

Re: How much do you usually spend on a b-day gift for your Dad?

my Dad gets mad- I am NOT allowed to buy him gifts

he would just tell me to return it-

it's always been this way- so I give up- he doesn't need a thing

$35 - $40. That is the average for my family because I have 2 stepfamilies, my mom's side, my dad's side and my il's side...it adds up!

I don't really have a set limit. I try to get him something he likes/needs. Most likely it is fishing gear.
