Budget Christmas gifts for men.

[@carrieh2409]

oooh, tip from my mechanics (both sons)….magnetic bar lights that stick to your car’s hood when it’s opened up to work on the engine etc. They come in all price ranges and sizes, and throw a ton of light!

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Great idea

[@Litha-yz7xq]

To go with torches, a headlamp is so practical and my husband loves his. Being hands free is wonderful!

[@carrieh2409]

I have four large dogs and it’s pitch dark here by 4:30…I love the headlamp my husband gave me last year (thought it was seriously weird at the time) when I need both hands to keep the leashes straight and hubby and sons often steal it when they need extra light when working above/below vehicles!

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Thanks

[@sheryl8034]

​@carrieh2409 seriously weird at the time😂😂. I really want a decent torch for taking the dog out ❤🎉

[@rose-g3l]

Thanks to Mike for this ideas gifts. Good Vidéo. My ideas : a small bluetooh speaker, a large magnifying glass, a new box for her glasses, a hand made knitted pullover, a comfortable cushion, a box of pencils-eraser if he does crosswords, a vintage vynil, or vintage magazine...and of course Sweets

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Cool idea!

[@sheila1013]

Some great and practical ideas there Mike. 😃 I used to always buy my uncle a box of Maltesers. He appreciated those more than anything. On the subject of key rings, many years ago, my friend's mum brought me back from holiday a novelty keyring with a small fold-up pair of scissors attached. I still carry it around to this day and they have come in useful on many occasions. They are actually a good little pair of scissors. 🤗🎄🦌

My son likes Flannel PJ bottoms and books. I'll also get him his favorite chocolate bar.

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Thank you

[@pennyheinrich5552]

Great video as always, Jane! This year, it's homemade coupons for car washing & detailing, flashlights and wool socks.

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Great idea!!

[@juliemoore6957]

All great ideas. This year, the men in my family are getting these in their stockings: pajama pants, little bottles of super hot gourmet hot sauce, back scratchers, manly scented bar soaps, little manual hand held games, and a bunch of homemade goodies including caramel corn, cookies and chocolates!❤

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Thanks for sharing

[@roenadykin689]

A sad light. Thanks for the tips, brought a smile and a chuckle. See you tomorrow.

The guys in my life love to get a tin of their favorite roasted nuts!

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Thanks

When my grandfather was still with us he loved chocolate covered cherries. Always knew what to get him, and he would get several boxes 🎁🎄

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Mike's favourite too....called 'Mon cheri' here

[@paulineharrisonevans48]

My brother loves to get my homemade bread pudding or potted ham along with a monetary gift

[@teresaearl5688]

Thank you! You too!

[@julieemig432]

A gift I just brought today was a led with zoom flashlight. It’s for a game we play at Christmas and there are a lot of men in the group. No gift exchange just one gift for the game.

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Thanks for sharing

[@carlienvandernet7902]

My oldest brother loves marzipan, cookies, all kind of candy and pistachios. His wife loves bonbons and chocolate. My youngest brother loves beer’s, olives, nuts and whiskey. His wife loves chocolate peanuts and normal chocolates. My friend loves everything chocolate. So that is what I get for them, except for the whiskey because he only likes the very expensive ones and they are above my price range.

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Thank you

[@lindajacquot5391]

Thanks, Mike! I always give my husband chocolate. Many of the suggestions you listed are ones that I have gifted my husband and sons in the past (chocolate is always given). I'd add a nice pair of slippers - shearling lined, if you can afford them. My husband loves those (almost) as much as chocolate. ❤🐾❤️🐾

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Thank you

[@SharonMcGee-b2i]

All good suggestions

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Thanks for watching

Aftershave, my dad always asked for Yardley's Old English aftershave.

[@jackiephillips9042]

I usually make Harvey some pj's but this year he said he is good. So I knit him a nice thick toque, and bought him some new socks. I will probably get him a jigsaw as well.

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Thanks

[@Vangirhl]

A new wallet, favorite aftershave lotion, or a car wash kit (has soap and dashboard cleaner, etc).

[@r.p.9829]

My husband loved the car kit I bought him last year...

[@atlanticvegansurfer8144]

A waterproof watch and a waterproof pouch that has an adjustable strap to hang around the neck for phone and wallet. My husband enjoys surfing.

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Nice idea

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Good idea

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Thanks

[@jodieupton4000]

Now budget airlines are very strict on carry on baggage, I would recommend as a present for people who travel, a rucksack that is the maximum size permitted to go under the seat. Many brands such as Cabin Zero make good quality, durable ones that you can use as a normal rucksack while you're away.

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Good idea

[@clydare]

Excellent content Jane and Mike . My son Winston loves to receive gift vouchers for the local DIY store and gadgets for his car! You can be really creative with men’s gifts if you do your homework first 😊

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

That's a great idea!

[@Sandra-s3p]

Great gift ideas. Thanks. I am enjoying your vlogmas.

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Glad you like them!

[@CherylAnderson0]

My husband really likes nuts. Cashews are his favorite. My best friend’s husband likes pajamas and socks! This is off subject but a couple days ago I got three small gifts. One from my neighbor, one from my best friend in Kentucky through the mail and one from a friend at church. Not expecting anything I realized the small things make me really happy. My neighbor made me a clothespin ornament painted to look like me even with long hair and she painted a tiny weenie dog like mine on the shirt! My friend in KY sent me a Bundt cake tiny ornament because I’m always baking Bundt cakes. My friend at church’s daughter had been to Disney and brought back several Mickey Mouse gingerbread cookies and he brought me one! Such little simple things were the best gifts I could have imagined. I am certainly not regifting these. 😂Then another friend gave me the next day a northern lights calendar from the dollar tree. That is significant because both of us had friends and family who got to go see them this year. I am not good at picking gifts. I try but don’t seem to have great ideas so I stick to pajamas, gift cards and requested things.

[@roberttombrella6764]

Debbie-Texas. My husband loves his multitool fleece hat ( hes bald) 😊 and good work clothes. Hes x a happy man.

Men are so hard to buy for. At least with Ladies you can always buy nice toiletries.Somme great ideas there from Mike. I always buy my brother thermal socks and undies as he works outside a lot and is always cold in winter.

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

Thanks Pat

[@lynnoorman2144]

When my son was 40 as a joke present i got him 40 bars of decent chocolate! Grest ideas both in the vlog and, in the comments. A waterproof pouch is a great idea. My son rides a motorbike so that for is wallet, sounds ideal!
