There's always a time and need for last minute holiday gift items for dad. Surely he'll appreciate whatever you get him, but just in case you're not his favorite kid, choose from this lovely list and move up a rung on the hate ladder this season. After all, you can't very well get him the usual Playboy subscription if there's not going to be any nudity in there anymore.
Snow Joe Cordless Snowblower ($379)
![last minute dad gifts, gifts for dad, cordless snowblower]()
If we can have wireless phones, we sure as hell should have wireless snowblowers. No more unknotting and lassoing those long cords for dad. He can be the neighborhood blower with this lightweight, emission-free, 40-volt power tool. Then again, maybe "neighborhood blower" isn't the best term to go with.
Cards Against Humanity ($25)

Get used to being the favorite child.

TV
![last minute dad gifts, gifts for dad, television]()
He's not expecting you to get him a TV. But maybe you could check out some of the awesome deals from our Black Friday Blowout, some of which will likely be back up for sale the day after Christmas. Currently there's an LG 98-inch 4K Ultra HD 3D Smart TV for only $40 grand. Maybe aim lower. There's also still sales going on for Apple iPads, Apple TV and more.
Garmin Fishfinder ($80.99)
![last minute dad gifts, gifts for dad, garmin fishfinder]()
Your father always talks about how he loves to fish. You even got him that nice fishing rod a few years back that he hasn't touched.

Some are super affordable in simple gray while others can be high dollar trackers. You're decision rests on how much your dad sucks at fishing or how quickly he quits and goes for the beer.
