Where would life be without Dads? That being said, they can be incredibly hard to buy gifts for! We here at the Littleton Co-op broke things down by dad characteristics (dad-teristics, if you will) and found options for everyone for Father’s Day. And have no fear — there’s a gift for every budget, too. Make things easy and find all of your Father’s Day gifts and essentials at the Littleton Co-op.
For the “Stereotypical Dad”
If you swear every TV sitcom father is based on your own, he will appreciate complex sauces and marinades to complement his summer grilling; one of our hundreds of local craft beer options; a nut or snack mix to make couch-sitting more fun; or a sweet treat to end the day. Consider these options this Father’s Day:
- LOCAL Genuine Jamaican BBQ Sauce and Marinade: $5.99
- LOCAL Schilling Beer Co. Ziegenmensch Maibach: $17.99
- Bulk Organic Dill Cashews: $16.99/lb
- My Dad’s Cookies (assorted flavors): $7.99
For the “Outdoorsy Dad”
If you’re worried about getting your dad inside long enough to open a present, give him tools to stay out longer, enjoy the outdoors, or remind him of our area’s natural beauty with:
- Littleton Co-op Trucker Hat (various styles available): $19.99
