Over the next several months it will be the case that many people begin to think about Christmas gift ideas and presents. Before making any final decisions when it comes to purchasing a Christmas gift at full price it is a wise decision to wait and see what is on sale during Black Friday and cyber Monday.
Taking the time and effort to come up with a great Christmas gift idea for dad could prove to put a smile on your father’s face on Christmas morning. Some of the common items that her father may enjoy as a Christmas present this year could include power tools, a TV, a new computer or cell phone. With many Americans very excited about the new cellphones coming out there’s a very good possibility that dad may want a new android or Apple phone so he can surf the Internet from the palm of his hand. The Google Nexus Two is being rumored to be released sometime in early November and it may be the perfect gift for dad to get him the brand-new android phone.
Another very common Christmas gift idea for dad and 2010 will likely be power tools. Here’s a list of some very good power tools from Ask the Builder:
18 volt Cordless Saw and Drill – Ryobi Brand – I LOVE this set!
3 Black & Decker Super Sawcat Saws with traditional 7.25″ blade
Bosch Belt Sander
Porter Cable Screw Gun
Porter Cable 1/2 Inch Drill
Bosch Hammer Drill
Senco Pneumatic Nailers
Paslode Impulse Nailers
Ridgid 10″ Power Miter Box
Delta 10″ Table Saw
Porter Cable 1/2 inch Right Angle Drill
Makita Palm Sander
Roto-Zip Drywall and Project Cutter
Milwaukee Sawzall
Porter Cable Router
Almost all of these power tools are available at retailers such as Lowes or Home Depot. These home improvement retailers generally have very good black Friday sales so it might be a good decision to do a little bit of extra research and see if you can find discounted or low prices for some of these power tools. Before making a purchase is always a good idea to call back and see which tools he already has. Unfortunately, this will likely give away his Christmas gift idea but at least you will know that you are getting him something that he does not already have in the garage.
Another very common gift idea in 2010 will likely be a brand-new TV. The new HDTV’s are very attractively priced and offer some great picture viewing for a dad who loves to watch the tube. Almost all fathers love the opportunity to sit around on the weekend and enjoy some very good football games. With this being the case it might be a great Christmas gift idea in 2010 to buy dad a brand-new TV. Some of the more popular TV brands that are currently available include Samsung, Philips, Sony, Vizio and Panasonic.
Would make in any major purchases is always a good idea to see if there are any sales or deals available. But the overall economy greatly struggling in 2010 it can be expected that there are many discounts available when it comes to Christmas gifts during the months of November and December. Finding the best Christmas gift ideas for dad should not be hard as there are many options.

Having always gone the power tool/ woodwork tool route in the past, this year, my dad’s getting a surprise…prepaid cell phone time! He’s been complaining for months now about his cell phone bill, and I’ve decided to help him change the status quo by getting him a Net10 phone. They have some really great phones now, without going over the top with something he won’t understand and the monthly cost will be really affordable and easy to budget for upfront. No contract, no bill and no confusion. He could probably easily get by on 750 minutes, which will only cost $25/month. I think the best part for him will be the simplicity of prepaid, and the best part for me will be knowing it’s a reliable service and I won’t have to sort out any issues!
