Urgent: Birthday Ideas!
 
Ok, so I've only just realized it's my dad's Bday tomorrow and I still haven't got anything! :crazy: I'm short on cash and all options I've thought of have run dry...so any new ideas would be GREATLY received!
Thanks!

Fashion him something out of household items?

Might try that thanks!

Sorry, that wasn't very helpful...why are guys so much harder to buy for?

get him a bottle of wine, or couple of cans of larger, whatever he drinks.

When you say low budget, how low are we talking? What about an aftershave or a fragrance of some sort - do you know what sort of smells he likes?

What about a home-made voucher for a meal out, a day trip, or a picnic? Like an IOU?

Are you interesting in art or photography? What about making him a collage of family photos? Or some nice, really decent quality lagers (i.e. not the cheapy Sainsburys ones?)

I don't know if you have any of those where you live, but I always just go into one of those shops that just sell all kinds of random things. Bits and bobs like. You can usually find great stuff there that wont cost alot of money. It probably wont be on his wish list but at least it will be a bit of fun.
Yesterday I popped in to one of those and got my flatmate a keyfinder (whistle if you've lost your keys and it beeps and flashes) for £3 and a bit. Nothing fancy but it made her laugh...

Tell him you will take him for a meal whe you get paid.
Or make him a new cd on your computer.

Thanks for all the ideas, I got him a bottle of whiskey :)
