Blogmas 4 - Christmas Gift Guide for Guys
Hey Beauty Bees,
We are 18 days away from Christmas and have only 17 days left to shop for our loved ones. How are you doing on your Christmas gift shopping? I am pretty much done except for a few little stocking stuffers. On Blogmas Day 2 I did a gift guide for girls and like last year, I want to do a gift guide for guys as well.
If you are having a hard time figuring out what to buy for the men in your life, take a peek below for some ideas.
1. Xbox One and Games
With the new Halo 5: Guardians game finally out, an Xbox One might be on top of your guy's wishlist. If he already owns the system or snatched one up during Black Friday, there are many great games that you can get for him such as Tony Hawk Pro Skater 5, Rock Band 4 and Star Wars Battlefront. If he prefers PlayStation or any other gaming console, think about getting games or accessories for those.

2. Team Memorabilia
The majority of men who like sports will have a favorite team so why not get him some memorabilia from them. Jerseys are always a great choice but can get pricey so other great options are cups, key chains, t shirts, hats, scarfs and flags. (As if you could not tell, I root for all Boston teams!)
3. Cologne
Guys love to smell good, it is a fact. Pick up a bottle or gift set of their favorite cologne to keep them smelling nice into the new year. If you are not sure what scent is their favorite, Sephora and Ulta have these amazing gift sets that come with multiple mini bottles of cologne for them to try out. Usually these sets will come with a coupon for a free or amount off a full size of their choice.
4. Clothes
Is the guy your buying for having a hard time letting go of that worn out North Face or Under Armour sweater? Replacing it with a new gifted one will be a simple choice for him. If you are not sure where he likes to shop for clothes, go generic with items like pajamas, socks or underwear. Guys seem to really enjoy receiving these items since they hate to waste their time going to the store to buy more when they run low.
5. Tickets
This is a really fun idea because it can work for absolutely any guy. Tickets can be for a sporting event, a concert, an upcoming blockbuster hit, a conference or even a vacation! Just make sure you work out the details and buy for future events so the receiver has enough time to plan ahead.
6. Movie/TV Show DVDs
Movies and TV Shows are another great gift. Some popular shows on TV today are Game of Thrones, Sons of Anarchy and Flash. For movies you can go classic like Star Wars and Lord of the Rings or comedic like Austin Powers and Bad Boys.
7. Go Pro Hero 4 Camera and Accessories
Chris actually just got a Go Pro this year and he absolutely loves it, especially when he attaches it to his motorcycle helmet. With the right accessories, I think this camera could become a favorite in any guys life.
8. Gift Cards
Just like I said in the girls gift guide, gift cards are always a great option for anyone. There are definitely a lot of options for guys like stores in the mall, home improvement stores, restaurants or even Xbox live cards. Take a little time to think about the giftee and figure out where they would love to get a gift card from.
9. Accessories
Accessories like shoes, watches, sunglasses and wallets are all items that guys really love. You could give some new Adidas or a pair of Oakley sunglasses. Just think of items that will match with their style.
10. Subscriptions
I love monthly subscriptions and I know my Husband does too. Any guy would love a box with themes like food, clothing and accessories. You can also find boxes with more specific themes like comic books and shaving. Take a peek below for a great box called Snack Sack.

SnackSack
SnackSack delivers better tasting, originality, and higher nutritional value, once a month. They include a mixture of snacks that are organic or all-natural, non-GMO, vegan, fair-trade, or gluten-free. Each month is different, but you will see a variety of snacks anywhere from 12-15 at a price of $23 monthly. I received the November box and inside were 14 amazing looking snacks. Here is everything that came inside:
- Fruit Bliss French Agen Mini Plums
- Barnana Coconut Banana Bites
- Betty Lou's Cashew Pecan Ball
- Pop Art Cheddar Jalapeno Popcorn
- The Better Chip Beet Tortilla Chips
- Jimmybar Banana Muffin Mini Bar
- Mandy's Chocolate Cookies Thins
- Gorilly Goods Pumpkin Seeds & Kale
- Hubs Virginia Peanuts
- Kelapo Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
- Raw Rev Glo Protein Bar
- Earnest Eats Superfood Trail Bar
- Vintage Italia Tomato Pasta Chips
- Brothers All-Natural Fruit Crisps
They also included a few coupons in the package, as well as the actually snack sack that some of the smaller goodies were packed inside.
I think this is such a great box because I was able to try such a variety of snacks. Out of the 14, I would have to say I loved 9, liked 3 and disliked 2. My absolute favorite snack was the Betty Lou's Cashew Pecan Ball. My least favorite award would have to go to the Beet chips since I really do not like the beet flavor. Beyond the snacks, I think the price is really good for the amount of products you get as well as you get some coupons to put toward more! I also really liked how nicely it was packaged inside and out. Any guy would love to receive a gift subscription of Snack Sack. Check out their site here to sign up: http://www.snacksack.com/
