What to Get Your Guy for Christmas

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Ohio U chapter.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year (and the most stressful). Between finishing finals and starting a winter job, there is the obligation to get a gift for your family and yes, your guy, too. We thought buying for our parents was hard, until it came time to buy for that special someone. Hopefully this article will make it helpful for you to ace his gift and celebrate with less stress!

Electronics/Music/Games

1. Powerbeats Wireless is a hot buy from BeatsbyDre.com right now. This allows your man to listen to his music while working out or walking to class without the pesky cords getting in the way. (Of course, these babies run from $199+, so make this a special gift).

2. Sound systems are a great way for your guy to show off his music taste to his friends. There are many types of systems available, depending on the car, price, and amount of volume he wants. Sony offers this one for $49.99

3. Your man has to stay occupied while you aren’t around (and unfortunately, sometimes when you are), so get him a game to keep his mind going and hands moving.  Although there are hundreds of video games, I recommend sports associated ones such as Madden NFL 15 (so you can avoid the sounds of gunshots and yelling.) GameStop offers this game new and used from $49.99+.

Sports

1. What guy doesn’t like repping his favorite team with loads of apparel and cool gear? The NFLshop.com offers hats, jerseys, collectibles, and more for your man’s favorite team! This Green Bay Packers hat is only $24.95 and will keep him warm for winters to come!

2. A tailgating and summertime favorite, corn hole can become more special with the customization of your guy’s favorite college team! Many small companies hand paint them and sell them locally. Check them out in your area. This Ohio University Bobcats corn hole board can be found here.

The Other Stuff

1. Getting cologne is a win-win for you. Your man is sure to appreciate a great smell while you get to pick the smell you would like him to wear. Test out all the scents in a department store like Macy’s or Dillard’s and decide what best suits your taste. This Adam Levine for Men starts at $25.

2. This gift is for the crafty (get it?) 21+ year old. Have your man test out his skills at making his own beer. It’s a science experiment and a treat at the same time. Order this gift at gifts.com. It’s only $39.99 for a good time!

Alright Collegiettes, get to shopping! Merry Christmas!
