Top 6 Websites to Find the Ultimate Father’s Day Gift This Year

With Father’s Day just around the corner, many of us are racking our brains for the ultimate gift. It has to be something good, something meaningful – after all, this is the guy who took you to your first sports game, taught you how to ride a bike or drive a car, and has had your back from the day you were born.
Giving your dad a boring tie though isn’t going to cut it this year. Instead, you want to find something he’ll absolutely dig. But where do you start? How do you find exactly what you want when you don’t know what you want? From the indoor couch surfer to the gadget tech lover, we’ve compiled a list of the top websites to help you find the ultimate gift for your dad.

1. The Gadget Flow


A one-stop shop for gizmos, The Gadget Flowfeatures a range of products compiled from different websites. The site is easy to use with gadgets organised by hot collections, staff picks, gift ideas and useful products designed by gadget lovers – for the gadget lovers.

The website makes gadget hunting fun and easy by bringing in an online store of carefully handpicked products. The Gadget Flow is constantly updated with the latest cutting-edge gizmos and makes it super easy to find the perfect gift for dad.   



2. Skeeters Online Warehouse




Skeeters Online Warehouse will keep you entertained with the highest quality products and cool gift ideas. Targeted to suit almost every style, the site includes categories such as marine, home theatre, mobile accessories, gadgets and gizmos, car audio and hot items, just to name a few.
The home page promotes the newly added products and the hottest items at the moment. If you’re searching for something in particular, the site includes a search bar at the top that’s easy to use. For those that are simply looking for inspiration and the ultimate Father’s Day gift to stand out, you’ll find it by browsing through the online store and different categories.


3. Firebox


With an almost Pinterest-like style to it, Fireboxis an online electronics store specialising in fun tech-toys. Based in the UK, they ship products worldwide for a small fee and easily sorts gizmos into personality types, top 50, new stuff and a specialised gift finder. Product boxes are all marked with “new” or a number that indicates popularity (no#1 indicates the most popular products).
If the categories don’t stimulate an idea for dad this year, then the gift finder makes it super easy to narrow the options down. Sort by price range and your dad’s personality type (enjoys a brew, animal lover, outdoorsy and more) to help generate some gift ideas.


4. This is Why I’m Broke




This is Why I’m Broke needs to come with a warning – upon entering you will almost definitely end up buying something (whether it’s for you or your dad.) The site is addictive and can be easily distracting so make sure you remind yourself why your there!
Listed as one of the top 50 websites for 2014, This is Why I’m Broke is very true to its name. With products ranging in price from $10 to $65,000, the site lures you in with the newest toys first and then sorts the rest into easy to find categories.
Although some of the products are quite extreme, the surpassingly excellent site definitely offers something unique for everyone. Once you’ve found the ultimate gift to purchase for your dad (or you, if you got distracted) the site directs you to an external site where you continue the purchase. This tends to be either Amazon or the company selling the product itself. It’s a website with gadgets you just got to buy and others that simply leave you wondering


5. Gadget Guy




Whilst it’s not as visually appealing as the other sites on this list, Gadget Guy offers all the latest gizmos for your gadget loving dad. The products are sorted into categories including home appliances, smart watches, digital cameras and coffee machines. It also includes product reviews and the latest online news relating to any of the tech-toys and gizmos.
The site can be a little jam packed with information but is good for when you want to read up on the product too. The search bar makes it easy to find gift ideas you have already thought of, or check out the ‘budget gadgets’ section for some good deals and further reviews. If you’re looking for further information on the side of buying dad’s Father’s Day present, the site also offers a “how do I” guide to spark further interest and ideas.

6. Dude, I Want That


Dude I Want That is an online store offering those one-of-the-kind products that have been hand-picked by an actual person. Sorted into gift guides that feature gifts for men, gifts for women, gifts for the musician, gifts for the pet lover, and gifts for athletes and of course – gifts for dad. The site also categorises products by location and popular tags.
Similar to This is Why I’m Broke, the site can feature products that are so unique and out-there they’re borderline extreme. All the same though, it definitely generates a few awesome and original ideas for dad this Father’s Day. Whilst it doesn’t sell any of the products itself (it’ll direct you to the purchase site) the website lives up to its name of “geeks gift guide of gadgets, gear and novelties”

  1. I try to come up with creative gifts for my husband for his birthday and all the holidays. These websites will help me with ideas, as it is getting harder and harder after 25 years to come up with something new and surprising!

  2. My dad is gone, and I miss him a lot on father’s day, but my father-in-law is a sweet, sweet man. They recently downsizedto a townhouse, and I think they’ve found they need a few things. He’ll get a good gift this year!

  3. The dudeiwantthat link doesn’t seem to be working. When I try to go to it in my browser, it says website not available. Are they still in business? Will have to try again later maybe. Thank you.

  4. I’m still in love with the “This is Why I’m Broke” web site! I most definitely will be buying my Father’s Day gift and Christmas gifts from here. My daughter would love the Color Changing Shower Head!

  5. Ahh, Skeeters has a lot of good electronic accessories at good prices – cables for audio and tv, headphone cords, aux cables (I need one of these for my car!).

  6. I just checked out “The Gadget Flow” website and I really like the ResQ Tire Repair! You can keep it in your trunk and it can seal a tire puncture and inflate a flat tire within eight minutes. Very handy!!

  7. I would love to get the big bubble that you can be inside and roll on the water, like a hamster, from thisiswhyiambroke.com. The whole family could have fun with that!

  8. I liked the gift guide for musicians on Dude I Want That. My husband would like the picks and amps on there, and I love that Marshall amp refrigerator!
