Brother, Boyfriend, Best Friend or Boss - How to Be Original When Buying Gifts for Him by:John Smith

Men really don't make life easy for us do they

? It's a fact that when birthdays and Christmas come around, the men on our shopping list really do prove to be the most challenging buys. They tend to be the 'no mess no fuss' gender, they like what they need and the rest is clutter. Sure, many men do like their clutter, but it has to be man clutter. Boys' toys, gadgets and cool gizmos rank high on their radar, as do funky solutions to everyday problems, interesting trivia, nice little pieces of nostalgia and classy accessories to keep them looking smart.

Whether it be your brother, your boyfriend, your best friend or boss, buying gifts for him needn't be a chore. Making an impact with your gifts is all about seeking originality - it's essential to choose gifts for him that he would never expect to receive and that he's never seen in the shops. There are plenty of original Gifts for Him to choose from, it's just a matter of tuning in to his tastes and deciding what will make the most impact! This might be a case of quizzing him subtly or having a word with those closest to him to find out just what items would be top of his wish list.

Cool Gadgets and Gizmos

When it comes to the ultimate in gifts for him, those gadgets and gizmos really hit the spot. With the radio controlled forklift truck for example, he can have hours of fun moving around and lifting miniature pallets to his heart's content. A real adorable boys' toy, there's even a cute little set of cones to complete the picture just in case he's worried about the health and safety aspect! Alternatively, if he likes to create a bit of intrigue amongst his friends and family, a mystery UFO might just be the ultimate gift for him solution. When this little gizmo gets going, it appears to whizz around suspended in space, an impressive piece of technology that relies neither on batteries or remote controls. And if he's a bit of a nerd, he'll be eager to demonstrate the technology behind his office coffee warmer at work. Whilst his colleagues complain that their coffee is going cold, he'll be keeping his hot by plugging his clever warming device into his computer. It doesn't rely on any external source of energy so it's environmentally friendly too!

Nostalgia and Trivia

There are some amazing Gifts for Him that will appeal to his sense of nostalgia, either for times gone by or things held dear to him. Did you know you can now buy an original newspaper from the date of your choice? He'll be intrigued to read the headlines from the day he was born, or why not choose a special day from his past that meant something special to him? The newspaper even comes in a choice of presentation boxes with a personalised certificate of authenticity for that touch of quality. If he's approaching his 40th on the other hand, and his nostalgia for the past revolves more around fond memories of flairs and the crackle of space dust, he might just love the 1970s scrapbook, celebrating this sparkling era in hundreds of images that are sure to tickle his fancy.

Fun and Games

Gifts for him that are full of the fun factor are sure to be a winner and give him a few chuckles on his special day and beyond! There are also endless opportunities to wind him up, which let's face it, we love to do! If he's a disaster in the kitchen, the ultimate in Gifts for Him could be the Kitchen Superhero kit, containing the cookbook for a man who probably only owns one saucepan, together with his own kitchen superhero apron! And if he loves to poke fun at the lower rungs of society and their entertaining ways, why not give the ultimate in hilarious gifts for him, the 'Become a Chav' gift pack! Sure to become a relic of the Noughties, it's something to keep well into the future. It comes with your very own ASBO, and details every criteria that has to be met to qualify anyone as a chav. It may not be very PC, but it's the only gift certain to provide hours of laughter and an insight into modern human anthropology at the same time! On the other hand if it's him that likes to do the winding up, how about the remote control tarantula? Its irresistible furry legs make it so realistic that anyone with an evil sense of humour will have hours of fun at the expense of his family's sanity!
