we have four things. what are some other things i should get him?

Answer 1

CD of his favorite singer

DVD of his favorite movie/show

If he likes to garden, get him a plant, tree, or flowers for his garden.

If he likes to do things around the house, get him some tools or a new tool box.

Subscription to a magazine or newspaper that he likes.

Take him to a show or concert.

Tickets to a sporting event

If he's likes any teams or sports get him some fan gear, like shirts, mugs, car mats, etc.  Anything with his team on it.

Family portrait.

Statue for the garden

Fountain for the house, garden, or office

Gas card for commuting back and forth

Get his car washed, waxed, and detailed.

If he has a hobby, get him something related to his hobby or a gift card to the store he shops in for his hobby.

Wine refrigerator and a bottle of wine.

Cigar humidor and some cigars (if he smokes them).



If he likes to cook, some cooking gadgets or a new grill or things for the grill or kitchen.  Personalized apron, platter, or even the new branding tool that's out that you can brand the meat that you're making with your initials.  You can get that at williams-sonoma.com  

If he collects something, get something to add to his collection.

Take him out!  That would mean more to him than anything you buy him!  Spend time with him, take him to lunch, mini golf, go karts, the movies, dinner, for ice cream, anything!

You can also make him up a snack basket with all the things that he likes, things like cookies, chips, candy, etc, and put them in one basket or container so when he's relaxing or watching tv, he has his favorite snacks nearby!

Books

Hammock to relax in

Coffees or teas

Gift card to his favorite coffee shop or restaurant

Framed pictures of the family

Clothing

Paper Shredder

GPS unit

iPod

Stereo

TV

New Phone

Any kind of decor for the house, art, etc

Massage chair or seat for the car

Handheld video games

Garden things/outdoor supplies

Membership somewhere, like to play golf for a day, or go on a fishing boat for a day, etc.

New office supplies if he works in an office

New travel mug if he commutes and takes coffee

You can also get one of those picture frames that has all those different sized openings for pictures in them, they sell them everywhere, Kohls, Walmart, etc, and put pictures in them of him and the family through the  years, just leave 2 spaces blank, one to put Happy Birthday and the date, and another for you and your family with him of course to take a picture on the actual date of his birthday and then put the picture in there when it's printed out so he has the most recent picture in there too.  This way, there's pictures of him and his family through the years, you can put pictures of him and his parents, him and you, him and your mom, etc.  Some of the frames have openings all the same size, others have openings all different sizes.  You can put all different pictures in there of him through the years and I'm sure he would love it.  He can hang it wherever he likes and look at whenever he wants!

I hope some of these ideas help and that your dad has a great Birthday!  I love the idea of 8 gifts on his 8-08 birthday!
