The 11 best gifts for your dad under $50 (because we know he’s hard to shop for, you’re welcome)

Do not, I repeat, do not wait until Dec. 20 to start looking for a holiday gift for your dad. If there’s one group that is universally hard to shop for, it’s dads. Either they already have everything, or they can never pinpoint what they want. Of course, that makes your job of finding a present that will please extra hard, so don’t make your life even more stressful by waiting until the last minute.
With that in mind, we’ve been hard at work polling real-life dads and scouring comment sections to compile a list of dad-approved holiday gifts for those of you who are stumped. Before you immediately go with one of the gifts below, first think about who your dad is and if there’s something he really likes. Does he grill all year round, regardless of the temperature? Does he love his watch collection more than he loves you? If your dad is passionate about something specific, you should use that as a starting place for a great gift. If, however, your dad is like most and just goes with the flow, then get inspired by the awesome gifts for your dad under $50 below.
