Good Store Picks for Father’s Day Gifts

Helping good dads make their everyday better | By Kelly McGilvery

A few words about gifts for Father's Day (June 21) from Good Store. Gifts can communicate to the recipient how they are thought of by the gifter. Consider your message to your dad this Father’s Day. Which personality most describes your dad?

A man of taste: a connoisseur of finer things

A sophisticated guy, your father. Big on personal grooming and lots of other little habits that make him stand out from the crowd. He’s been a metrosexual since before the term was coined and he has had signature scents for as long as you can remember. Help him get where he’s going this Father’s Day with a subscription to Sun Basin Soap’s Soap Surprise Club. He’ll get two different bars of soap each month. Or if he’s got some favorites and wants to keep them, try a Sun Basin Soap Bundle.

A goofball, a social butterfly

Your dad is always joking around, with wait staff and telephone operators. He loves to bring a little light to everyone’s day. Show him how much you appreciate the levity he brings to your world with an Awesome Socks Club Monthly Subscription. His self-expression just got more colorful and creative with a new set of artist-designed socks arriving each month. They’ll bring joy to others’ days, as well as enliven your dad’s experience every time he looks down. They’re nonstop conversation starters, just how he likes them.

A practical thinker

Your pop has a workshop stocked with nuts, bolts, and thingamajigs ready to solve any problem around the house. He likes to keep gears greased and stairways swept. If he can do a chore and make something run more efficiently, he’ll jump at the chance. Give him a hand with all he does with a EcoGeek Home Bundle - he’ll appreciate the no-waste nature of the cleaners as well as their eco-friendly materials. He can keep the setup in his workshop or under the kitchen sink.

His mind is in the clouds

Ever since you can remember, your dad has always had his nose in a book. Always a paperback open on his nightstand, always a New Yorker in progress on the coffee table. Ready at a moment’s notice to quote a writer or recite a sonnet. Get his attention and help him bring his other senses to life with some Keats & Co tea and a fine mug with a Tea Lover’s Gift Set.

Someone who needs to treat himself

Your dad thinks of everyone in the world before himself. He’s forever shuttling grandkids between sports practice, play rehearsal, and piano lessons; running errands for friends; and changing lightbulbs in hard-to-reach spots for you and your siblings. Help Dad slow down and take some time for himself, at least once a day, with a Keats & Co Starter Kit, so he can stay caffeinated while he’s figuring out how to make his community a better place.
