A Trip Down Memory LaneFebruary 16, 2009Posted by: Dan T.
However, when it comes to a retirement gift from family and friends, the way to go is with a gift that will complement their new non-9-to-5 lifestyle. Will they be spending a lot more time on the golf course? Will they be doing some traveling? Bottom line is, retirement is a milestone well-worth honoring with a great gift. Regardless of how they’ll spend their new-found free time, we have a great gift idea they’ll really appreciate. |
On Par for RetirementJune 19, 2008Posted by: Dan T.
Whether they're planning a golf getaway or just spending every afternoon on the green, this gift basket is sure to please. Filled with everything a pro needs like chocolate golf balls, key lime cookies, a sport-top water bottle, collector's mug and more, this golf bag carrier also functions as an insulated cooler. Perfect for those 19th hole refreshments. Snag one for your favorite Country Clubber or the Active Retiree! |
Retirement Gift for the Stock WatcherApril 1, 2008Posted by: Megan H.
The stock watcher type will love the StockCast Wireless Stock Market Tracker as a retirement gift. Updated every 15 minutes with easy-to-read numbers and icons clearly showing the gains and losses, the Stock Market Tracker is convenient and reliable…and way more fun than pasting photos in a scrapbook–at least for the stock watcher! |
Turn a Record Collection Into ArtMarch 14, 2008Posted by: Dan T.
You can purchase the frames individually, but I recommend the set of four to create a cool montage of classic LP art. This is a perfect gift for the Music Lover who is <ehem> mature enough to have a prized vinyl collection. Make a note because Father's Day is a great call for this one too. |
Passport to the Life of LeisureFebruary 25, 2008Posted by: Megan H.
I can, however, live vicariously through some of my family members' retirements as they jet off from one long vacation to another. If you know someone who is also about to embark on the life of leisure, a Monogrammed Leather Passport Case would make a wonderful retirement gift. Just try not to get jealous when they use it on their trip to your fantasy island. |
Last Minute Gift for GolfersDecember 21, 2007Posted by: Dan T.
The golf experience is both helpful and flat out a great deal at the same time. Not only does the recipient get about 6 hours of instruction (with a 6:1 student to teacher ratio), but there's also a $400 gift card from Callaway thrown in. It's the ultimate gift for the country clubber. So with some new skills and fancy new clubs, there will be absolutely no excuses for rounds in the triple digits. And since you can email or print this gift at the very last minute, there's absolutely no excuse not to give this gift on Christmas morning. |
Practice Makes a Perfect RetirementJuly 16, 2007Posted by: Dan T.
For retirement parties, you pretty much have two options. You can either give a personalized commemorative or you can give a gift that’ll get used during all those extra hours available in a work-free day. That’s where this gift comes in. A backyard practice net is the perfect gift for the retiree that plans to better his golf game. He won’t have to spend his retirement fund on driving range fees and he can make as much noise as he wants when he can’t get his swing right. And I bet once he gets all the mulligans out at home, it’ll be a whole lot easier for him to relax and enjoy himself on the course. |
1,000 Places to See After RetirementJune 29, 2007Posted by: Julie K.
I just started obsessively TiVo’ing the Travel Channel’s series 1,000 Places to See Before You Die (Thursdays at 9 p.m.). The show is based on the popular book of the same name and follows a couple around the world as they visit a bunch of the amazing spots the author, Patricia Schultz, writes about. I must admit, I’m insanely jealous of the lucky travelers and wish I had the vacation days and cash to follow in their footsteps. Really there’s only a few times in life when you’ll have the chance to do such a massive string of traveling: if you become independently wealthy (note: buy winning lottery ticket tonight) or when you retire. And since all the retirees I know have a tendency to get bored without work, you might want to give them this book so they have a few good ideas of what to do, or 1,000 to be exact. |
A Raft Fit for a KingJune 27, 2007Posted by: Dan T.
Every summer by about this time, either my inflatable raft starts getting a hole or my daughter has decided to permanently perch on my favorite outdoor chair. I definitely need a lounger upgrade and boy have I found it! The Man’s Best Lounge Chair is genius. It’s got a bunch of cup holders, a canopy shade to block that hot sun, zippered pockets for gear, and it’s made of durable fabric. I’m not letting anyone near this. And I’m willing to bet that every guy you know who spends time at the beach or a pool would love to stake his claim on one of these. Give it as a birthday gift, to the guy who hosts you for a weekend at the lake, or let your dad spend his retirement relaxing on the open water. |
