What giving a gift is all about

Get a gift for. . .the Boyfriend

Is your boyfriend tired of getting the Sports Illustrated Football Phone/Subscription combo every year? (For the record, I checked, and they are no longer giving them as the "free gift.") Try mixing it up with one of these gifts.

Let me guess. Your man's wallet is brown, leather, and completely falling apart. Give him a stylish upgrade with one of these wallets designed by Hlaska. ($48.00, available at Chocosho)


Album covers have been gracing urban apartment walls for years. Take your boyfriend's love of vinyl to the next level with a Vintage 45 Clock by Vinylux. The numbers are laser cut and it comes ready to hang or place on a stand (which is included). ($28.00, available at Elsewares)




And while we're on the subject of vinyl, if your boy-toy has tons of old records and bootleg tapes just piling up, why not hook him up with an Instant Music Ripper? It converts records and cassettes into MP3, WAV, WMA, AAC, and CDs. In fact, he can capture audio from the TV, radio, or a DVD player too. Just think of the hours of fun he'll have...($59.95, available for Macs and PCs, at Firebox.com)

The long winter months are just around the bend, so warm your boyfriend up with a new coat this season. I love the Military Duffle Jacket from Lucky. It has a removable lining and a faux-fur lined hood. That's toasty! ($228.00)






It goes without saying, beer gear will always be a hit with the old ball and chain. And if your boyfriend's got his own make-shift bar, consider getting him a spiffy beer tap. Ebay has a huge selection of vintage and new beer taps. One thing's for sure, it's bound to get lots of use!



We all know the saying, so I'm not even going to mention it. Feed your man's heart with the gift that keeps on giving - 12 months of Omaha Gourmet Entrees! But you better make sure he invites you over to share - this gift will set you back $49.99 a month!


And finally, if your guy's heart is as big as his stomach (I promise, last cliche), buy him a La Concha Restoration t-shirt from Unica Home. The shirts cost $25.00, and 100% of the profits are donated to restoring this icon to a Neon Museum.
