Father’s Day and Graduation are coming, so it will be time to think about getting gifts for these special people in our lives. What is a great gift, which is simple and we be well received. I remember once my dad bought me a small battery charger from Sears. I am quite certain it did not cost that much, but boy was that a wonderful gift indeed. I cannot tell you how many times it saved my butt. Another year my dad bought me a set of really Good jumper cables, again I cannot even tell you how many times I helped save someone else’s butt. Occasionally yes, I save my butt too.

A really good set of quality jumper cables is only about $15 to $25 and a battery charger well they run about $25 to $50. They are really smart for grads and yes Dad with all his hobbies will need one too. They are great for motorcycles, ride on lawn mowers and all the family cars. It sure makes him look like a stud, when he can make something work again. That my friends is satisfaction for a father; father saves the day. See he is good for more than lifting heavy objects and reaching high places. Dad’s like to be problem solvers and they derive strength and happiness from getting the job done and over coming problems. Give them a boost with a new battery charger for father’s day.

For female grads, let me tell about Triple A cards. The American Automobile Club can save your daughter, sister or friend from a potentially dangerous situation in a dark parking lot or on the side of the road with a flat. Triple A membership cards offer lock-out services, free towing and myriad of services. If for some reason there are no hunks around to give her a jump start and rescue her from a dead battery, well then Triple A is only a phone call away with ‘jump start service’ too.

Graduation gifts and Father’s Day do not have to break the bank. If you have a sister or brother or grandson or granddaughter; think on these easy gifts. If your Dad is tops, he deserves the pride and satisfaction which comes with being a father, a problem solver and pillar of the family; think about.
