Last Minute Father's Day Gift Idea -Uncommon Goods Review & Giveaway



Lets face it, its not easy finding cool gift ideas for men. They are so hard to shop for. If it doesn't involve tools and sports, you are pretty much out of options. Well at Uncommon Goods, they have lots of fun sports themed gifts (like pens made from your favorite stadium seats) and a few interesting tools (like grilling tools). But they also have a large selection of other cool gifts that guys are going to love.  This Father's Day, don't give dad the same lame old tie, find him something out of the ordinary at Uncommon Goods.





For our review, my husband picked out the Beechwood Flashlight. This is not just an ordinary flashlight. Its a designer piece crafted from organic beechwood. It still functions like a regular flashlight and will come in handy in a blackout. But when you're not using, its a lovely conversation piece to have on your desk. It has an easy to use press button switch and the LED bulb should never need to be replaced.  It works with three AA batteries and is definitely a unique gift idea for dads who need to a little light in their lives. 





Father's Day is this weekend, but if you are a last minute shopper like me, you may still need a few things. Its never too late to let the men in your life know you appreciate them, and Uncommon Goods is the perfect place to find great gifts for him.  If you need something for a women or even your kids, Uncommon Goods also has a great selection of unique gifts for all the members of your family. Prices are reasonable and shipping is quick. This is a company you can trust to find something that will make any recipient smile. Go to Uncommon Goods website to see the great selection of gifts for men.
