Fathers Day: Gifts for £10 and Under


With Father's Day coming up (19th June) I have compiled a few gift guides to help you out with gift ideas for your Dad, Grandad or husband.  I have decided to do it over a few posts this gift guide is all about things you can get for £10 and under. This is ideal for younger children who want to buy something for Dad/Grandad but are on a limited budget. 


Star Wars: The Force Awakens was recently released on DVD and Blueray so if your Dad is a Star wars fan and doesn't yet have this DVD than this a great gift idea. Price ranges depending on where you purchase from but this is currently £10 on Amazon. 


£9.99

 Wilkinson Sword have raised the game again with there new Hydro 5 razor with innovative gel pools designed for an improved glide to give the best protection from irritation.The latest innovation will be rolled out across the full Hydro range with features that can't be found on any other razor. Stuart has the original Hydro razor so was looking forward to seeing how this one compared. The razor delivers skin protection and a more comfortable shave by: 

 Hydrating Gel Pools:
Lasting up to twice as long as other lubrication strips on the market, the gel pools deliver 40 per cent less frictionthan any other razor brand. The gel ensures your skin to hydrated for up to one hour after each shave. which a conventional strip can’t do.

Flip Trimmer:
Rather than struggling to reach difficult areas of the face, with a simple flick of the thumb  the hydrating gel pools flip back to reveal five blades that deliver parallel precision and control.

Advanced Skin Guards and Reduced Blade Span:
The guard bars and reduced blade span have been redesigned to improve comfort, safety and prevent skin pinching.

The Handle:
With an upgraded colour palette, the ergonomic handle gives the razor a full range of motion fitting perfectly in the hand and providing guys with a more comfortable hold and control whilst shaving.



If you want to get a small and simple gift than why not consider standeazy. 
Standeazy is a credit card sized mobile stand which fits smartphones (including the larger ones) and mini tablets and e-readers. It fits perfectly in any card wallet and the concept is that it easily converts to a phone stand that allows different viewing angles. Standeazy retails at £2.99 for plain colors and £3.99 for special edition ones. 


Back to shaving products a great range of skin products for men is The Real shaving Company three step solution:

Step One: Prepare
Instead of using soap which can be harsh on the skin or water which doesn't shift dirt and sweat, you need the Real Shaving company face scrub. This helps to buff away dead skin cells.

Step Two: Shave
Formulated to help remove unwanted hair from your face effectively. The creams and gels are also great at preventing cuts/razor burns. 

Step Three:Maintain 
 Replenishing your skin’s natural moisture with one of the stage three products will help to care for skin to keep it looking fresh.

The great thing is that they smell great too. Prices are around £3.99.




Moving onto alcohol we have a selection of ales from Goose Island.

The IPA (Indian Pale Ale) is a hop lovers dream with a fruity aroma, set off with a dry malt middle and long hop finish. Ideal to be had with curry, chicken or pork and also with blue and aged gouda cheese

The 321 urban wheat ale is inspired by Chicago and named after the city's dialing code.

The Honkers Ale is inspired by visits to the english country side. combining a fruit aroma with a malt middle that creates a perfectly balanced beer.

If cider is more of your Dads thing than he may like Cranes new Cranberry cider. It has grown rapidly since its launch and they are now looking for investment to take it to the next level, they are already in talks with supermarkets and pub chains so it looks very promising.

Gift Ideas for Men

Every women knows that men are overall extremely hard to buy for. 
There is always an occasion when you have to buy for a bloke and you
don't have a clue what to get. 
So I have complied a list of things my hubby likes to give you a few ideas
for the man in your life when an occasion arises. 

First up is a gift for the man who likes to take care of himself. 
for £28.00 from Will and Glory you can get the
 Quintessentially English - Buff Men's Gift Box. 
which contains soap, shower gel and moisturiser. 


Men love watches this is the  one that I brought Stuart as a birthday gift a few years ago. 
The great thing about watches is that you can find one for every budget.
So if you don't have much to spend  or can afford to splurge than a watch is the ideal gift.


For our first anniversary I brought Stuart a Papercut wedged between two
pieces of glass. Stuart loved the thought and the personalised idea
you can find many companies that do them in a range of designs 
that you feel would be suitable. 


A Tetris lamp, Stuart loves this lamp as you can change the way 
shapes slot into each other but also as its very 80's and he is a big fan of that. 


But one of the main things that Stuart loves his games consoles he has huge collection of consoles and 
games. So if your man is a lover of consoles and games you need to check out Gioteck they  offer the 
most innovative gaming peripherals to help improve gaming experience. 
They are a leading retailer for PS3, Xbox and PC accessories.
Providing you with durable and  reliable accessories packed with the latest technology allowing you to truly immerse yourself in games, across all platforms.

Whilst at the moment their aren't many options for the new generation of consoles yet 
they offer PS3 controllers and hopefully releasing PS4 headsets and  controllers in the future. 

A PS3 controller would be an ideal gift because there are many to choose from with 
different functions and the man in your life can enjoy the games he loves.
