Tired of buying your guys boxers, socks, and ties for your man? Or even worse, have you notice that he’s not as “surprised” anymore when you give him a gift? Don’t feel bad, many women have no idea what to give their special guy that they’ll really enjoy. When you think about it, shopping for a woman is a lot easier than shopping for a man. There are a ton of things you could get a woman and she’d be completely thrilled, but for men, figuring out what they might enjoy is like finding a needle in a haystack.

While shopping for the right gift will depend a lot upon your guy’s personality, style, and interests, I’ve put together a list of things that he might actually appreciate getting from you this year. So whether he has a birthday coming up, you enjoy shopping early for the holidays, or you want to give him a gift just because, these gift ideas will certainly put a smile on his face.

1.  Rent a Sports Car

Chances are you probably can’t afford to give your guy a sports or exotic car of his own, but renting can be a more affordable option. Renting a car for the day can be a great way to let your man know you care. He will certainly be appreciative of it, and he may even let you sit in the passenger seat and enjoy the ride. Maybe you could make a date out of it so that you two can explore some new destination in a nice ride.

2.  Alcohol Club Membership

You’re probably thinking, what in the world is an alcohol membership; however, this gift idea has become very popular for men. If your guy enjoys drinking whiskey, scotch, bourbon, or craft beer, there are actual clubs that they can become a member of. When you sign up, they typically deliver a package that includes a few different alcohol choices. These deliveries continue on a monthly basis allowing him to expand his palate and broaden his horizons.

3.  Sports for a Day

Is your guy really into sports? If so, why not foot the bill for him to play his favorite sport for the day. Purchase a round of golf, a trip to the gun range, the batting cages, etc. If he’s not particularly the best at playing them but loves to watch sports, you could also consider purchasing a ticket for him to see his favorite sports team play.

4.  The Gift of Football

Football season is almost in full gear now so why not give your guy the gift of an all season access pass to every football game this year. Before you pass out wondering how much it would cost for him to see every game this season, consider this option. Investing in television subscription services that offer football add-ons is affordable and will ensure he never misses a game. Direct TV, a Satellite TV offers great choices for all access passes to the NFL. Your guy can watch the games, record them when he’s not around, and even watch them on the go through an internet capable device. Sure you might have a hard time keeping his attention, but deep down inside he’s so thrilled that you purchased this for him. He’ll thank you for it…. as soon as the season is over.

5.  You

You probably didn’t consider yourself as a gift, but you are. Your guy adores you and giving him the gift of you will certainly make him smile. I’m not suggesting you walk into the room and say, hey, I brought you me as a gift. However, doing something nice for him can do the trick. A little lap dance, a nice dinner for two, or even a soothing massage will make all right with the world.

Shopping for your guy does not have to be hard. Before you begin looking for the perfect gift, ask yourself what types of things he might actually enjoy receiving from you. What types of things does he like? What’s his personality? Based on these questions you should be able to find something rather easy. Ladies, if you’ve given him a tie or underwear several times in a row, it’s time to switch things up. Hopefully this will inspire you to do something that will really make your guy happy.
