Happy Green Monday friends! Hopefully by now, you’ve gotten the majority of your holiday shopping completed. Chanukah starts tomorrow night! And on top of that, Casey’s birthday is Wednesday. He always complains that he’s gotten gypped throughout the years, with his birthday being so close to Chanukah and Christmas [he celebrates both], but I have a feeling this year he won’t be disappointed.
Below is a list of current sales going on today. I really wouldn’t hesitate to buy presents at this point in time… shipping can be delayed over the next two weeks and stores are insanely crowded with tons of impatient people!! So, today is the day people!!

Gift Ideas for Him
I wanted to share some gift ideas for the men in your life. I’m using Casey as my guide and highlighting items that he currently owns or would love to own.
Headphones: He swears by this pair, which are currently $100 off! He’s owned them for a year and they’re literally attached to his ears for hours every single day. It’s great for men who travel a lot, or prefer to talk on their phones hands free. He’s worked out with them as well!
Watch: Casey is a lover and collector of many watches, but both he and his brother favor Nixon. They’re durable, water resistant, look good, and are relatively affordable in the world of watches. If you were looking for a more luxury option, Movado is always a safe bet. I love this one that’s a bit more sporty compared to their traditional style.
Home Gym: Definitely a splurge item, but all Casey has wanted since moving into our home is converting part of our garage into a gym. His parents spoiled him rotten this year and got him this one for his big 35th birthday. Amazon has tons of home gym options at all different price points.
Ugg Slippers: Who doesn’t love Uggs, right?! Case and his dad both have and love this pair.
Socks & Undies: Not sure your guy gets as excited about new socks and boxer briefs as Casey does, but I swear, he’s obsessed. Of course, they can’t just be any ol’ brand and type… Nike no shows and Under Armour briefs are his jam.
Activewear & Sneakers: Casey should have just been a Phys Ed teacher so he could get away with living in workout attire all day, every day. He’s been golfing every weekend with my dad [cute, right?!], so I picked up a few of these Nike golf shirts for him. Now that it finally cooled down here, I may grab him a few comfy joggers. In general, he shops at Lululemon, Nike, and Under Armour.
Technology: Fitbits, portable speakers, and the Echo are popular favorites.
Bar & Cigar: Bar items and good cigars are great go to gifts for dads, uncles, and significant others. Last year we got Casey’s dad a cigar subscription for 6 months, and it was one of his favorite gifts to date. A cigar box filled with cigars, a cigar cutter, and cool lighter was also a past winner. Depending on the man, a good, high quality bottle whiskey or scotch can be greatly appreciated!
Dress Shoes: Case loves Cole Haan and splurges on a pair or two every couple of years.
