That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.- from Declaration of Independence

Fathers day gifts, ideas for gifts

We can`t talk about fathers day without thinking about the best gift that we can offer. And that depends of our budget , so first think that we have to do is to decide what amount of money we are going to spend.

Well, we will start with gift ideas for those who have no money to spend but still want to offer a gift for dad.

No money

Almost everyone has a printer in the house, or an old picture with you and your father. So i would suggest to find a good text, and write it on the back of the picture, or to print it with nice characters and glue the picture an the paper. Everything goes inside an envelope, which can be mailed of given to your dad. Don`t worry, your dad will be touched by the gesture, and will appreciate it. Of course, if you dad has a cell phone, a special text message for father's day will be a nice thought, even if you meet him later.

Under 25$

That amount still gives you a lot of options, and the final is a symbolic gift , in nice paper packaging or gift box (those will cost you under a dollar).
Picture frame, with a photo of you and your dad.
Flowers, if your dad likes them, flowers in a pot, better, because he is going to think of you every time he is taking care of them.
Coffee cups, that is a nice, useful, low-budget gift for dad.
T-shirts, sport hats, a pair of new crocks.
Also a bottle opener, a wine bottle opener, a nice lighter are nice gifts ideas for fathers day.
