Boyfriend

Ladies, if your boyfriend is a sports fan, you have a wide selection of choices, including autographed balls from his favorite team, a subscription to a sports magazine or insider access to his favorite sports website, or even tickets to an upcoming game. AllWomensTalk.com also has some advice on saving money in the process. "If he's got a favorite sports team, you can probably find inexpensive tickets to an off-day game or event. Still too expensive? If he's into hockey, but you can't afford the Red Wings, then buy tickets to a non-pro team instead."

If he's more the outdoorsy type, multi tools or portable GPS navigators are always great gifts, as are LED flashlights and camping accessories.
