ARE you scratching your head for how to treat Dad this Sunday?
Households spend on average of £56 on Fathers’ Day treats, Argos reckons — but you need not break the bank.
Here’s some savvy pressies for less than £20 . . .
TAKE A BREKKIE, DAD: Start the day in the best possible way, with breakfast in bed. A bacon sarnie should do the trick. You can buy a pack of 12 smoked back bacon rashers from Iceland.co.uk for £2 — cheaper than tesco.com where a pack of ten is £1.95.
CARD SHARP: Why not try your hand at making your own card for Pops? Not only will it be more personal, it’s the thought that counts more than ever during times like this. But if your artistic skills are not up to scratch, you can get a card from just 99p at cardfactory.co.uk.
SCENT-SATIONAL: Before you splash out £66.50 to gift dad a bottle of Paco Rabbane Invictus Eau De Toilette at boots.com, you should check out Artiscent Cedar Blanc Eau De Parfum from Superdrug.com, which is currently on sale for just £6.66 and smells super-similar to Invictus.
BIG DADDY: While many of you would usually eat out for Fathers’ Day, Covid-19 had other ideas this year. But that does not mean Dad cannot eat like a king. Check out the Big Daddy cheeseburger at iceland.co.uk. It is the biggest burger I have ever seen and only £3. Grab a pack of thin and crispy French fries for £1 and that is a well deserved dinner sorted.
SLICE AS NICE: If Dad prefers a pizza, The Pizza Company meal deal at tesco.com is probably right up his street. Get two pizzas, two sides and/or desserts, plus a dip stacker for just £10. I reckon that is a bargain.
UP THE STEAKS: Bag two sirloin steaks, a bag of chunky chips and a bottle of red wine for £10 online only at groceries.morrisons.com — all that would usually cost £18.25, so you are making a great saving.
