Practical Gifts

[ Edited ]

What practical gifts do you like to give or receive? I am especially interested in gifts for men.

Bell and Howell Flashlights from HSN (630-940)-- All the men that I've given these to said that they are great!  I kept some in my house, too.

My husband likes gift certificates to his favorite sporting goods store.  Another practical gift he has received and found really useful is a book of car wash 'coupons'.

@chessylady ~ Gift cards!  I buy my son, and other people gift cards to their favorite restaurants, fast foods, Amazon, movies, 

Uber (car service,) Starbucks, Car Wash coupon booklet, stores,

massages (usually the chair type,) which you can find at airports.

They feel so great, especially in between connecting or delayed flights.  So many gift cards and choices.  I love receiving them as well.😃

 

As mentioned by @momoftwo2007, flashlights come in very handy, and there are so many great offerings at HSN and OVC.

Snacks, my DH loves those tins of popcorn, cans of mixed nuts and any kind of chocolate. When March Madness begins, he's still eating Christmas snacks!
