My dad has an addiction to ties that women have to shoes.

We bought him really nice tie & cuff link sets from when we were in London -- great price and we can make it sound fancy by saying "It's European!"

Re: WHat do get DAD for Xmas

same thing I get him every year..new Timberland Deck Shoes. He wears them all the time and loves to get his new pair at christmas. He'd be upset if I didn't get them for him!

Re: WHat do get DAD for Xmas

We're thinking about getting my dad something from either Omaha Steaks or ribs from Jack Stack in Kansas City.

My dad doesn't need/want more "stuff" at this point, so I figure something he can eat would work.

In the past, we've also gotten he and my mom tickets to a show, concert, or sporting events.

I got him and my mom a GPS. If I wasn't doing that, I would probably have gotten him an ipod dock. Can you tell he entered the 21st century this year!

A night at Foxwoods.

Something he would NEVER spend $ on but I know he'll love!

(They have great mid-week specials.)

my dad is the same way - don't get him anything.

His 75th bday was last week, so I bought him wooden trains for his grandkids to play with when they come over...LOL (He is a model train enthusiast)


For the holidays I'm getting him a hand truck (that the UPS guys use to carry heavy packages?) since he is getting older and it will help him move things around.

The steaks is a great idea! One year I got my diabetic FIL fruit of the month
