I'm posting this in hopes of getting some ideas for my dh. I have no idea what to get him and it doesn't help that his birthday is near Father's Day.

For my father, I'm thinking about ordering a CD from one of his favorite singers from Amazon.

I am so cheap. I got Dh a bunch of freebies. Every freebie I got in the mail for him I have put away just for Father's Day. So far he has a new razor, body wash, Craftsman poster, Zippo lighter (he will be so excited about that one), and hair gel (a tub of it). I also got him a 31 peice road side emergancy pack for the car. I only had to pay shipping ($7). I might get him a new Bluetooth for the phone.

Dh's step dad will get a card. I just made him a cup with the boys pictures on it from the year. He was very excited about it. MIL is waiting for one now.

Dh's birthday is a few days before Fathers day so I always combine his gifts. This year I am getting him some "Dirty English" cologne and shower gel from Sephora. It will cost $80.00 for the two products, but dh is gone for 2 weeks in June so I will save a ton of money on groceries, so it won't hurt the monthly finances.

I bought boxes of chocolates after Christmas and my FIL is getting that, I'm not sure about dh. He didn't get me anything for mothers day because he said I'm not his mother. So I am still a little sore about that. So not sure what I'll do.

He didn't get me anything for Mother's Day this year although he usually gets me something very nice. We got him an MP3 player and I have already put every song on every CD he has onto it. He will be pretty excited!

Boy, I hope I'm not the only one who doesn't give gifts for father/mother's day! I don't even do cards anymore. As long as they get a phone call or in person greeting from me I'm done.
