Finding gifts for him

If I had a boyfriend or husband I would enjoy buying gifts for him. Any time I go shopping at a department store the mens' products always catch my eye. I love to smell all the different fragrances for men and the packages they come in are always so interesting. Like the boxes that look like leather or crocodile. I saw one that looked like a gym locker the other day and another that was like galvanized steel. If I had a man I would definitely pick my favorite scent over my favorite box to give as a gift, but if there were two scents I liked the box would be the tie breaker. Speeking of ties... I love men's neck ties. They are always so colorful and shiny. Any time I am in the store and pass by a rack with neck ties hanging I must stop and feel them. They are always so soft and silky and the colors always pop which makes me happy. I love vibrant colors. I bought a tie once for my ex-boyfriend. It had a black background with an array of stripes in mint, grey, and light blue. It was pretty. He wore it to church on Easter Sunday and he looked great! I can not buy ties for my dad because he never wears them. He is a blue collar kind of guy. I usually get him random gifts because I find it difficult to shop for him. One fathers day I bought hi and innovative rake. I don't think he uses it but maybe he does. They is one male I never have touble choosing gifts for who will always be with me and that is my son. Right now he is still a little boy so I bu him alot of toys, book, DVDs, and video games. For his birthday this year he had a Speed Racer theme so I got him a bunch of speed racer cars and figures. This Christmas I got him the Kung Fu Panda PS3 game and a lego man game for him to play on the computer. I also got him two movies so far, which are Speed Racer and Wall.e on blue ray. We are going to enjoy watching them together. I got him a bunch of other small things already, but I need to get him one big gift so it looks impressive under the tree. I'm not sure what that will me yet, but I am going to have fun figuring it out.
