Father's Day is this Sunday (June 19th), so you haven't got long to find the perfect gift to show your dad how much you appreciate him. Rather than picking up another DVD or a standby box of chocolates, why not get him something he'll actually use?

While every dad is likely to get use out of different things, we've some great ideas that could help him feel special on Father's Day. So why not get him one of these presents and really celebrate all that he does for you?

Experience days

Is there something your dad has always wanted to do but never got the chance to? Maybe he's wanted to feel like a Formula One star or go up in a hot air balloon? While you can't make all his dreams come true, you might be able to give him one day that is extra special.

You could even get yourself the same experience day or buy a package for two if you have the same interests as your dad. This means you are able to spend another day together and share something really special that will likely give you plenty to talk about in the future.

Barbecue grill

If your dad loves to be king of the grill during summer and enjoys creating different meals on the barbecue, why not get him a new one? This is a great idea for a joint gift if you have siblings, as it means you can get him a really great barbecue that he's sure to love firing up.

For dad's that already have their dream barbecue, you could get him all the accessories he needs to create great foods. Get him a great set of cooking utensils and his own barbecue apron, then you can have a family party to let him show off his grilling skills. 

Good whisky

Why not get your dad something he'll use this Father's Day?

You can never fail with a good bottle of whisky, which is why this is an ideal option for a Father's Day gift. The chances are your dad never really splashes out on a good bottle or only does so very occasionally. This means you can make his day by shelling out on a special bottle that he can put his feet up and enjoy.

You could even get him some nice whisky glasses and ice rocks, so he has everything he needs to really make the most of the bottle you've got him.

Of course, you could even get him a whisky tasting day, which will let him choose his favourite bottle after trying a few different tipples.

A good pamper

Who said dads don't need a bit of a pamper? If your dad works hard and is usually busy being a taxi for everyone or running around after kids and grandchildren, he may appreciate a gift that lets him really unwind.

Our Men's Gift Box provides some great products that will add a bit of luxury to his bathroom, including three of our most popular traditional soaps. It also has a sisal nail brush and soap saver, which are sure to be practical choices for your dad.
