Whether you are on the look out for something for that geeky, star wars lover, tech savvy entrepreneurial type or beer aficionado, we have some great ideas (you can order online) to get heart emojis blowing up your phones this Valentine's day.
The geeky guy, movie buff. This type of guy knows everything about the worlds and fandoms he loves. he can spout out elaborate histories and information on movies and actors leaving oyou amazed he can fit all that movie, TV, comic book universe knowledge in his head. For this guy depending what his is into (Dr. Who, Star Wars, Star Trek, DC, Marvel) action figures and memorabilia from his favourite fandom will delight him, geeky tees and of course, iTunes gift cards to order more movies and TV shows.
The coffee connoisseur. He tackles a lot during his day but first he drinks the coffee. The coffee connoisseur has his coffee making process refined down to a fine science. He make a mean cup of coffee that will keep you running for days. For this man get him a rich, dark and smoky sampler of freshly roasted beans from a local coffee shop, accessories for his favourite coffee making process, especially if they are hard to come by, or a gift card to his favourite coffee spot.
The Beer/Liquor Aficionado. The guy that loves craft beers, a perfectly aged scotch or a vintage wine, perhaps dabbles in brewing his own wine or beer, never drinks anything that hasn't been aged in a barrel of some kind. For these guys the perfect v-day gift is a a nice bottle of scotch or vintage wine, gift certificate to a fav. restaurant.
The Tech Savvy, Entrepreneur type. This guy is ambitious and motivated to learn. He always has the latest tech, he does alot of research before buying a new speaker or phone. He may have a day job but he also has podcast or blog ambitions and a thriving insta and twitter account. He follows influencers like Gary Vee, Simon Sinek, Brandon Burchard and Tom Bilyeu on multiple platforms. For this guys, a Sonos bluetooth speaker, will make his day. Even if he already has one, he can but the other somewhere else in his place and hook up Alexa for multi-room functionality, computer and tablet accessories such as key boards, pens and such as also great gift ideas.
The Gamer Guy. This guy has a console and is very partial to his brand (xbox or playstation). While consoles are not cheap and if you can afford to get one as gift only do so if you know the one he for sure wants. For this guy get him accessories for his gaming console -- remotes, gaming, headphones, remote chargers.
The Handy Man. The handy man knows his way around a tool box. He is always working on something and can fix most anything or at the very least, attempts to. Shopping for the handy man can be challenging because you need to know what tools he needs for his projects, if he need any at all. For this man, the best route to go is a gift card to his favourite hardware store. He can put it towards a tool he needs, or buy supplies for his latest project. It's a win/win. The mudroom reno finally gets done and he gets a new tool.
The Sports Fan. In Northern Canada most sports fans are all about hockey. When hockey night in Canada comes these men are in the man cave, yelling at their TV screens. For this guy team loyalty is everything. So get him a team t-shirt, jersey, hat or some masks. You can get virtually anything with a hockey team logo on it in Canada and we mean anything, pillows, blankets, flags for the car, flags for the house, glasses, plates, anything. If you wanna get him something on the lighter and fun side of sports, some mini sports equipment to play with around the house is a great gift idea. He can play hallway hockey and he can share his wealth of knowledge with the kids or he can brainstorm ideas for that new project while shooting hoops.
The Cook. This guy knows his way around the kitchen or the grill. He gets his hands dirty, chopping, sautéing, cooking and grilling up a storm. He makes savoury dinners and sumptuous breakfasts. This guy is a foodie. He makes yummy food because he likes to indulge in yummy food. he's got a unique pallet and taste for trying new things. For this guy feed that passion of his and get him some nice, quality kitchen tools, sharp professional knives, butcher block cutting boards, expert burger presses, grilling tools and high-end recipe books like Thug Kitchen.
The Every Man. Every man needs a refresh of these essential wardrobe staples. Why do guys always say they need socks and underwear when you ask what they want as a gift for any occasion? It's because they are men of practical needs and they need new underwear and socks and maybe a nice new shirt for work. For these guys of practical necessity, gift them a nice quality pair of what they need. It'll be a nice treat and way better than the pack of six fruit of the looms they would have bought for themselves. Everyone feels more taken care of and polished in some higher end wardrobe essentials.
The most important thing to give your guy for Valentine's day is, of course, your love, time and attention, it will be the best gift you can give him. Enjoy the day or night doing something together and having fun. Enjoy the love between you. It is a wonderful gift.
Happy Valentine's Day, all.
