Holiday Gift Ideas for Men Made Simple at Westfield Sarasota Square!

disclosure-for-site

November 22, 2016 Carlee at Fun Learning Life 93 Comments

A special thank you goes out to Westfield Sarasota Square for inspiring and sponsoring “Gift Ideas for Men” as well as a Gift Card giveaway! Opinions expressed are that of my own.

entrance-to-sarasota-square-mall

I have to admit that out of all the people I purchase gifts for at Christmas, my husband and father are the most difficult. Now because of this, I really do try to keep their presents interesting and spend more time brainstorming for the perfect fit.

However, I am happy to report I found Holiday Gift Ideas for Men Made Simple at Westfield Sarasota Square!

1. Movie Gift Cards or DVDS – Take the guess work out of future date nights or days out with the kiddos with a Gift Card to AMC Theatres!

Plus, if you know they loved a particular film this year, you can head on over to FYE to pick up the DVD. These are both great options for stocking stuffers.

2. Sport Themed Specialty Items – As I took a stroll down the center of the Mall I saw plenty of sports related items in my hubby’s favorite NFL team.

Not only did they have products for the home like blankets and kitchen accessories in a center Kiosk, but there was also apparel like jerseys, gloves, and caps. Plus when you are finished, you can head on over to Champs to find Ball Caps and Tees

3. Calendars, Posters, or Books in Favorite Pop Culture Themes – Whether The Walking Dead, Games of Thrones, or Fantastic Beasts, you can locate items like these at Go Calendars. Spencer’s, or again down at FYE.

My husband usually gets a Dilbert Calendar and I even saw one with NCIS, which is a favorite show (of mine).

4. Cologne/ Body Wash – There are plenty of great smelling opportunities for your husband, boyfriend, father or even teen/tween.

Looking for Body Wash or Spray? Find these at Bath and Body Works, or locate Cologne at Macy’s. Either way it is all at one central location in the Westfield Sarasota Square.

5.  Trendy Clothing – Let me count the many stores that you can find shirts, pants, sweaters and more for the favorite man in your life.

Between Old Navy, H & M, Macy’s, as well as Hollister Co., JoS. A. Bank, and Rue 21 it shouldn’t be too difficult to find the right look for your special guy.

What special items are you searching for this Holiday Season? Who do you find is the most difficult to shop for in your family?

There’s always something fun happening at your local Westfield Shopping Mall so be ready to be surprised and delighted by the **Merry Makers** as they bring moments of holiday cheer to shoppers now through November 27.

Plus, look for Santa located in front of Macy’s and grab a memorable photo opportunity! See what is happening near you by visiting Westfield.com/Holiday.

    I find it most difficult to shop for my father. If he needs or wants anything, he buys it himself. So it leaves me really trying to figure out a good gift for him. I'll be shopping for some electronics for my teen sons and some clothes for them and my husband. A few other gifts for some Aunts and Uncles and nephew and niece.

      I played that game for a few years with my son. All though it's nice getting them electronics, what these kids need are things to get them outside. Never be sad because you can not get them exactly what they want. When they'e older they'll look back and it will be the thought that counts. Too many families go broke at Christmas time and there is simply no need.
