It’s that time again. It’s another birthday or anniversary or holiday, and there you are, searching for the perfect gift for the man who already has everything.

We bet you’re tired of going the generic cash route or boring gift card route. But, even if coming up with a creative idea feels overwhelming, don’t worry! We’ve got you covered.

Let’s get into the best man gifts for the dear husband, brother, boyfriend, or friend in your life!

Top Five Best Man Gifts

Food & Drink

Yes, it sounds simple, but we’ve never heard of someone complaining about an edible gift!

Some fun ideas to get you started (and hungry):

• Homemade batch of his favorite dessert
• A new spin on a classic favorite? (Lucky Charms Snack Mix, anyone?)
• Collection of sauces
• Cooking kit or subscription box to learn how to cook
• Anything bacon-flavored. Cause, ya know, bacon
• Favorite bottle of wine/case of beer
• Gift card to a favorite restaurant or trendy restaurant for you both to try
• Basket of all his favorite snacks

Clothes He’ll Actually Wear

News flash: male fashion is on the rise, and some of the best man gifts include catering to his specific tastes.

Is your guy into sports? Look into his favorite team jersey.

Into casual clothing that makes a mark? Look into funky smile more shirts or sweatshirts that send a great statement out to the world!

And, what about shoes? Get the lowdown on his shoe size and surprise him with some new digs!

Experience & Outings

Great gifts don’t just come in pretty packages. Consider planning an experience or outing for the man in your life. Some of our favorites include:

• Booking a weekend getaway
• Concert or sports tickets
• Special dinner for two
• Road trip to a local fun destination
• Something ridiculously adventurous (skydiving, bungee jumping!)

Gadgets, Gadgets, & Gadgets

Trying to buy a gift for someone who’s always staring at a screen? Consider a gift in the technology department. Remember, even if he has the gadget, chances are, he’d benefit from adding some accessories.

For example, maybe he’s got the tablet, but he needs a keyboard.

Maybe he has the newest and trendiest phone, but he’s looking for an indestructible case.

Maybe he’s into digital photography, but he also needs a waterproof camera he can rely on.

Handmade Goods

For something truly one-of-a-kind, consider tapping into your creative side. Channel your inner artist and paint him a picture. Write him a beautiful love note. Get crafty with identifying how much he means to you. Restore a favorite piece of furniture. Write a sweet poem. Even coupon books can go a long way!

Remember, it doesn’t need to be professional or expensive to leave a lasting impression.

Final Thoughts

The top best man gifts are the ones that demonstrate how much you value the guy in your life.

You don’t need to complicate it. Most men aren’t looking for a crazy, over-the-top gift. They just want something that shows you understand their needs or desires. With these top five gifts as suggestions, you’re guaranteed to get him a gift he’s going to love!

Have you purchased at least one laptop, mobile phone, tablet, camera, cordless power tool, or camcorder product between January 1, 2000 and March 31st, 2011? Most of us have! If so, you may be entitled to get some money back from this Lithium-Ion Battery Settlement! Just complete the short form by November 29th to submit your claim if you qualify! Payment will be made out via PayPal or Amazon unless you submit a written request for a check.

Do you have a baby who is 12 months or older and regularly uses a sippy cup?

Go Apply to Test Out & NEW Nuby Designer Series FlexStraw Sippy Cups

Nuby will be selecting 15 participants at random. If you are selected to participate you will receive an email from a Nuby Team Member in the upcoming days. Participants will be asked to try the cup with their child and post a short review of the product on Walmarts’s website. All cups will be shipped to all participants from Nuby.

Many of us are just so busy these days. Take the kids here, take the kids there, and sometimes the last thing you want to do is leave the house and go shopping. Who wants to spend time getting the kids dressed, drag them to the store, and you still might forgot something on your list because you got distracted and trying to keep your little one from running or climbing.

Walmart understands and has made it easier to shop Walmart.com with the Walmart smartphone app! The app is available on iPhone, Android, or iPad. I have to say shopping on my phone using the app was so easy. Walmart.com offers the great variety and savings on everyday low prices that you’ve come to love at your local Walmart, especially on your favorite P&G products. I was able to purchase all the everyday items I use already like Tide Pods, Charmin Ultra Strong Toilet Paper Mega Rolls, Mr. Clean, Bounty Select-A-Size Paper Towels, and Swiffer!

You can choose to have your purchase shipped directly to your house (shipping is free if you spend $50 or more) or shipped for free to the nearest Walmart location for a quick and easy pick-up with Site to Store. I ordered the items I needed as you can see in the picture below and I was able to pick up my order the SAME DAY at my local Walmart store. Walmart.com offers different payment options, including the option to Pay with Cash if you don’t want to use a credit card online. How great is that?!! Not everyone uses credit cards so this is really great. I also liked that I could pay with a gift card. By using the Walmart smartphone app, you can easily build a shopping list by scanning all the products you’re ready to purchase again.

I think this is such a great option plus if you are running out of say Tide Laundry Detergent then you scan the barcode with your phone and it will show up on the site for you to purchase more. How cool is that? As moms we need to use technology to help us and Walmart.com has certainly done that with this nifty little app for your smartphone or tablet.

I loved bonding with my sons and holding them while I bottlefed them was a great time to unwind and just sit still for awhile. Fixing a bottle in the middle of the night doesn't seem so fun especially if you are still half asleep. I remember many times dozing off while feeding my son but I would still never trade those times for anything. They pass all too quickly.

You can get SIMPLY RIGHT™ Infant Formula at your local Sam's Club and it has three varieties. You can get Whether it is the Baby Care Gentle®, Baby Care Complete®, or Baby Care Sensitivity® SIMPLY RIGHT™. It is good to know that SIMPLY RIGHT™ Infant Formulas are Clinically proven to support growth and development, now with Lutein for brain and eye health! I know that would give me peace of mind to ensure my baby was getting all the best nutrients for proper growth and development.

What is really great about SIMPLY RIGHT™ Infant Formula is the scoop holder and leveler so no more guesses and it stays inside the container. The container has an easy open top which is great as who wants to fumble around trying to open a top in the middle of the night to make a bottle. The container is great for traveling and will keep the formula fresher longer.

SIMPLY RIGHT™ Infant Formula is very affordable which is another huge bonus. Use the savings calculator to see how much you can save per year compared to other formulas. I could save over $555 a year which is a great savings. What could you do with an extra $550 per year?
