Perfect Gifts For Dads and Grads

This post is sponsored by BabbleBoxx.com.

It is that season again, and we all know Dads and Grads can be so hard to buy for, but not this year! I have SIX unique ideas for the dad or grad in your life AND coupon codes to go with them. I mean who doesn’t love perfect, unique gifts &&& savings?! My husband was super excited about each of these and thought they were great gifts. Being the sports lover and practical guy that he is, I will let you guess his favorites!

For The Sports Fan: 119th U.S. Open Championship Tickets

We are a sports family. One of our favorite things to do is go to sporting events or watch them at home, so my first thought of Father’s Day goes to the U.S. Open Championship. My husband always loves watching the championship each year. The U.S. Open’s history is deeply tied to Father’s Day and in 2019, the world’s best golfers will converge and vie to win the coveted U.S. Open Trophy at Pebble Beach Golf Links® in Pebble Beach, California. This will mark the sixth time iconic Pebble Beach Golf Links® has hosted the U.S. Open Championship. It is sure to be an amazing experience and you can get on the championship experience and spend the day with your family as the final putt drops! While my husband loves the competition, I love the beautiful atmosphere (well, and of course the competition). Grab tickets FAST and check the 2019 U.S. Open off your dad’s “Bucket List”. Tickets go on SALE June, 11th, 2018 on usga.org/2019usopen. They have a variety of ticket packages available starting at just $60!

For The History Buff: MyHeritage DNA test kit

A MyHertiage DNA test kit is a unique gift idea for the history buff dad or grad. MyHeritage is the leading destination for family history research and DNA testing. I have consistently heard that MyHeritage uses the best leading technology and offers the most affordable price of all of the leading DNA companies. Plus, the DNA kit comes in a beautiful, premium package with an instruction manual, serial number for tracking results, cheek swab, vial to put your sample in, clear plastic bag for your sample and a self-addressed envelop for mailing the sample to the lab. Your results will include DNA matches of people who are likely related to you based on your shared DNA. They can confirm family relationships found through Smart Matches and Instant Discoveries. Your results also include an Ethnicity Estimate that shows you which portions of your DNA are estimated to originate from each of their 42 supported ethnicities. They have the most internationally diverse database. Plus, you get your results in a fun format to watch and share. We were most interested in seeing the ethnicity estimate, its so interesting to see your heritage and the breakdown of percentages. Use the coupon code BABBLEBOXX1 at MyHeritage website to get free shipping on your own DNA kit. Plus, from now until June 17th you can get a kit for only $59!

For The Practical Man: Hanes UltimateTM Men’s Comfort Flex Fit® Ultra Soft Boxer Briefs

& Hanes UltimateTM Men’s Comfort Fit White Crewneck Undershirt

This is totally my husband. He likes practical gifts and it doesn’t get much more practical than boxers and undershirts. The Hanes UltimateTM Men’s Comfort Flex Fit® Ultra Soft Boxer Briefs: are made from a soft cotton/modal for all day comfort and feature FreshIQTM advanced odor protection technology. They wick away moisture to keep you cool and dry, plus they have a no ride-up leg, a soft, stretchable Comfort Flex® waistband, and are tag-free for itch-free comfort.

Hanes UltimateTM Men’s Comfort Fit White Crewneck Undershirt are the same comfort story! They are made from a soft cotton/modal blend for superior comfort and feature the Cool Comfort wicking fabric to keep you cool. They also have a Lay Flat Collar to keep its shape. These fabrics are truly so soft to the touch and build for comfort all around! I may or may not steal Kevin’s undershirts from time to time. Did I mention you can get 50% off at Hanes.com by using any of the links to Hanes in this post!? Such a great deal!

The City Guy: Ties.com

While, I labeled this unique gift idea “the city guy”, it doesn’t matter if your dad or grad is into space, sports or outdoors, they have hundreds of styles to meet your needs! ties.com believes that dressing well doesn’t have to be boring, so their styles add a little bit of personality for the guy that wears a suit everyday to the guy that only breaks them out on special occasions. The Jules Tie in the pictures is such a classic. It is cotton, 3.25” in width and gives plaid a good name. I like the variety of different options this company has and the quality is great! So easy to shop for the grad or dad in your life and you can get 15% off your order with promo code TIESXBABBLE15 right now, just in time to grab a Father’s Day Gift!

The College Guy or Early Riser: Grady’s Cold Brew

Seriously, Grady’s Cold Brew, Bean Bag Cold Brew Kit is seriously so great. We have two in our pantry right now. It makes brewing your own coffee so easy. With the help of their ultramodern “Pour and Store” pouch, you’ll be brewing in no time. All you have to do is add water for 36 cups of iced coffee! The Bean Bags, which are just bags with ground coffee beans, chicory, and

spice, soak overnight in water. Then, in the morning, you just remove the bags from the pouch and discard. And, you’re ready for iced cold brew straight from the fridge. It stays fresh for two weeks after brewing and the pouch can actually be rinsed and reused as well! It makes it so easy for quick morning cups on the go or even an evening treat over ice cream. Give it a try or add it to your grad’s bag for 20% off with code BABBLEBOXX20 now through June 30th, 2018.

The Trendsetter: Black Clover Hat

With the distinct clover on the front, and their “Live Lucky” motto on the side, this hat is sleek and trendy. It’s hard to mistake a Black Clover hat for another, but style isn’t the only thing that makes their headwear unique. What really puts Black Clover headwear above the rest is the quality and comfort! Essentially, they make high quality, premium headwear this is extremely comfortable. I really like their motto and branding on the side, I feel like it makes their product unique and it just seems like fun lifestyle apparel to wear. Use promo code lucky15 for 15% off now through June 30th!

Be sure take advantage of the coupon codes and savings for these great gifts! Which catagory does the man in your life fall under? Is he a sports guy, practical guy, history buff or coffee lover? Comment below, I would love to know what you think he would like the most!

  • #BISSELLPartner I really thought my floors were clean… until I turned this on 😳

The headlights showed EVERYTHING—dust, crumbs, all the stuff you don’t normally see—and honestly, I don’t have time to go over the same spot again and again, so this is a lifesaver.

Lately, I’ve been using the BISSELL PowerClean DualBrush™ and what I love most is that it handles real-life messes in ONE PASS.

From breakfast crumbs on hardwood to dirt in the entryway to debris in rugs, it just moves right through it. The dual brush rolls grab both big and small messes, and the AutoAdapt technology automatically boosts suction when it hits dirtier areas, so you’re not doing extra work.

& The FurFinder™ Upholstery Tool targets stubborn, pet hair and removes it so well! 

✨COMMENT “shop” for the link ✨ It’s also $100 off right now ($359.99 → $259.99) from 4/5–5/30! Do yourself a favor, add this to your cart!
