What to by your man for Christmas?
  • When in doubt, buy him a cordless drill. It does not matter if he already has one. As a man, you can never have too many cordless drills. No one knows why.
  • If you are really, really broke, buy him anything for his car: a 99 cent ice scraper, a small bottle of de-icer or something to hang from his rear view mirror. Men love gifts for their cars. No one knows why.
  • Buy men label makers. Almost as good as cordless drills. Within a couple of weeks there will be labels absolutely everywhere. “Socks. Shorts. Cups. Saucers. Door. Lock. Sink.”
  • Rope. Men love rope. It takes them back to their cowboy origins, or at least the Boy Scouts. Nothing says love like a hundred feet of rope.


Christmas Fun:
  • What would be considered as the biggest Christmas gift in the world? The Statue of Liberty was gifted to the US by the French on Christmas day in 1886. It weighs 225 tons!
  • Christmas season sales account for almost 1/6 of all retail sales in the US.
  • The Rubik was the highest selling Christmas toy in 1980. That time it sold for $1.99 and today it retails for $10.
