With Father’s Day on the horizon, (Sunday June 15th folks.) I am hosting a giveaway with something for the Dads for a change. My 1st Years have a range of personalised gifts for Dad and I chose the following for Mr B.
For as long as I have known him Mr B has never worn a shirt without cufflinks, has always worn a watch and has never used a wallet but always a money clip for his notes and bank cards. His current one is in rather a shabby state. This silver plated money clip is available at My 1st years for £18 and can be engraved with up to 16 characters at no extra cost and is the perfect gift for him.
(For those of you who know Mr B, no, I have not swapped husbands. He was repeatedly, wrongly, called John Bart by a particular teacher throughout his school days and it is a nickname that has stuck.)
My 1st years have offered to give away another personalised money clip to one lucky Mum of One reader too. To be in with a chance of winning please tell me what you are planning to buy for your Dad this year in the comments below AND enter via the rafflecopter widget. Bonus entries can be gained in the usual ways and are listed within the rafflecopter too. Good luck!
This prize draw has been linked up to Competition Hunter, The Prizefinder UK and Di Coke’s SuperLucky blog.
