Father’s Day
With Father’s Day around the corner, you may struggle between giving a gift that’s practical versus one that’s sentimental. Bonding with Dad about music this Father’s Day might be the best way to reach a happy medium.
Inner Musician: You can always sing along with your father to his favorite tune, but with an instrument of his own, you two can create music together. If he plays the guitar, or has always wanted to, Father’s Day is the perfect time to buy him the guitar of his dreams. Check out retailers like Guitar Center and Musician’s Friend for top-quality musical instruments. Guitar Center is even offering $30 off purchases of $199 or more (code: PAPA30), which will make your Father’s Day gift even more affordable.
More Memories: If Dad already has a guitar collection, you can still give him the gift of music. Sign him up for piano lessons or lessons on any other instrument that he’s always wanted to learn. You can even sign up to take lessons together. The idea of making a new memory with your father should erase your worries over a gift, as this present will allow you to show your love by spending time with him. What better way to celebrate Father’s Day then by enhancing your father/son bond as two aspiring musicians and music lovers.

Father’s Day is a great opportunity to show Dad how much he is loved and appreciated. It’s also a great opportunity to spend a lot of money. By keeping your celebratory costs down this year you can show Dad how much you care without breaking the bank.
Dining In: You don’t need to take Dad out to a fancy steakhouse for Father’s Day. Dinner for two will run you at least $100, and if you bring Mom along or any other family members, the prices can skyrocket. To save a little cash, try making dinner at home. You can prepare a fabulous steak dinner with all of the side dishes (plus dessert) for a fraction of the cost of going out.
Easy on the Gifts: Your dad has been a dad for a long time. That means that he’s probably already got a closet full of ties, golf and tennis gear, and cologne. This year just give him one simple gift that he’ll actually get some use out of. Try getting a nice frame for your favorite family photo, so that he can put it on his desk and enjoy it every single day. However, if you still feel the need to take the traditional route, try getting him a snazzy pair of cufflinks at Cufflinks.com. The company is running a 10%-off deal until June 30, and you can choose from over 3,000 products, which include cufflinks, as well as men’s accessories, such as money clips and pocket squares (code: TENSAVE).
