Sometimes large elaborate gifts are not an option.
When you're looking for a gift to fit inside a card, you're more than likely seeking a personal, unique, oddly helpful gift that can be mailed and, in some cases, is affordable.
To save you some mind work and extra thinking, I've compiled a list of ideas for the man in your life that you can consider mailing or handing him as a gift inside a card.
Take note that you may have to purchase slightly larger cards for a few of these suggestions.
25 Gift Items for a Man: Gifts that Can Fit Inside of a Card:
- A gift card to his favorite restaurant or store
- Handwritten letter expressing your love and appreciation
- Movie tickets for a special night out
- A small printed photo of a cherished memory
- Inspirational quote or affirmation card
- Custom-designed bookmark
- Lottery scratch-off tickets
- Guitar picks for the music enthusiast
- Write a few riddle brain teasers inside the card
- Personalized stickers or decals
- Thoughtful coupons for acts of service or quality time
- Magnetic bookmark with a funny or meaningful quote
- Assorted tea bags or single-serve coffee packets
- A handwritten recipe for his favorite dish
- A collectible trading card of his favorite sports team or player
- A necklace, cufflinks, or other jewelry
- A personalized keychain
- A personalized business card holder
- A small pack of Post-it notes with witty or loving messages

Remember to account for the weight of the envelope if you plan to put the card in the mail; you'll want to ensure you have the correct amount of postage.
Don't send anything restricted or prohibited by mail, usually food products, medicines, etc.; check with your local mail service online or in person.

There are some wonderful ideas here, Barb! My husband and I have given each other event tickets and personalized custom coupons for acts of service and quality time together.
ReplyDeleteCustom Coupons have long been gifts our whole family has given to each other - kids included - over the years. A gift of your time is always appreciated. Your gift ideas are perfect for that special man in your life, Barbara, especially with Father's Day coming up.
ReplyDeleteI love all of your suggestions, especially gift cards. I have started giving those a lot more often. I have a sister-in-law who never liked giving or receiving gift cards and she influenced me for several years. When I realized she was the exception and not the rule (that most people like getting gift cards) I started giving them more often. I also like getting them. It is really cool to be able to buy something you really want without having to spend your own money. The men in my life like outdoor gear and I never know what item they might need. Giving them a gift card to their favorite sporting goods store is something they really like. They are able to replenish supplies that I would have no way of knowing they need.
ReplyDeleteSome really great ideas in here for those hard to buy for people in my life. Thanks Barbara!
