6 alternative gifts for dad this Father's Day

It’s time to start thinking about what to buy our dads this Father’s Day, and we all know buying gifts for dad is not always easy. How many more ties can a dad have? Please, no more “world’s greatest dad” coffee mugs or BBQ aprons. My Par (dad) has a collection of golf gloves and enough golf balls and tees to open his own golf shop.

We’re all in need of help, so here are some of my favourite gifts for dad this Father’s Day, and best of all you’ll earn cashback on all of them.

For the adventurous dad, why not get him a voucher for a day he will never forget from redballoon.Everything from beer tasting to rally car driving to clay target shooting and more. You can even gift your dad a voucher to jump out of a plane from either redballoon, with 3.5% cashback, or Skydive Australia with 10.5% cashback.

redballoon have great sales and promotions leading up to Father’s Day so you’re sure to find a great deal.

For some stylish comfy shoes for dad, you can’t go past toms.com. What I love is the ‘one for one’ programme, for every pair of shoes you buy a new pair of shoes is given to a child in need. Not only am I going to buy a pair for Par I think I might buy a pair for myself too. My pick is the Toffee Desert Taupe Suede Loma Slip-ons (pictured, $74.95) and a pair for myself from the vegan collection starting from $49.95. You’ll also earn 2.1% cashback through Cashrewards. italic text

For the Dads who take pride in their grooming, VitaMan.com has a great range of all natural, Aussie made skin and hair care products. Products start from $16, but if you are like me I’m a bit of a sucker for gift packs. My pick is the Anti-Age essentials pack currently on sale for $125, with 7% cashback through Cashrewards.

Hardtofind.com.au is a bit of a go-to for me, they have great gift ideas for all budgets; everything for the new dads to the dad who loves his gadgets. I love the personalised oak technology stand for $137.49 and for new dads I love the ‘my daddy is a giant’ print for $77. You guessed it, you’ll also earn cashback – 3.5%.

My Par is at his happiest when he’s behind his BBQ cooking for his family. My brother, sister and I are thinking of chipping in and getting this Charmate Ned vertical Smoker for $569 from appliancesonline.com.au for him. Par is a great cook and we can’t wait to see what he cooks with this.. and we can’t wait to eat it! We’ll also score 1.4% cashback.
