When shopping for the men in my life, I always find it hard to purchase original gifts. Everything seems so practical, pragmatic and un-fun. Sure, I could get my brother something he needs…Or I could get him something he never knew he wanted! (Isn’t that what buying shit for other people is all about?) Take a look at this array of practical and fun gifts. Trust me, it’s possible to strike the correct balance if you look in the right places!
