Gifts for the Guy Who Has Everything

Men can be hard to shop for, and if you have a guy on your gift list who seems to have everything, you may find the task even harder. Lots of men seem to go and get what they need immediately when they need it, which leaves gift givers scratching their heads over what to give them for Christmas. Never fear. There are lots of gifts that will be enjoyed by the guy who has everything.

1. Concert tickets.
If the guy on your gift list enjoys live music or theater, there are always new shows that he will enjoy. Call your local box office or go to a website that specializes in event tickets to see what's coming up. You may even be able to purchase general tickets that he can use at the show of his choice.

2. Blu-Ray discs.
Has the guy on your list has upgraded to a Blu-Ray disc player? Even though he may have some of his favorite movies on standard DVDs, buying the Blu-Ray versions of these movies will be worth it. This is especially true for classic action movies such as James Bond flicks, the Star Wars saga or Clint Eastwood movies. See if any of his favorites are on Blu-Ray and then help him add to his film collection.

3. Beer or wine.
Since these gifts are consumable, he can always use more! Purchase a specialty brand or a sampler kit from a brewery or winery. You can pair the spirits with fancy glasses or just give the beverages by themselves.

4. A poker set.
If the guy on your list loves to play cards, he'll appreciate a full poker set. These sets come with several decks of cards, professional chips and other poker accessories. This way, he won't have to dig through drawers to find his deck of cards every time he wants to play a game with his friends. You can also purchase poker sets with portable card tabletops that fit over any dining room table.

5. Gadgets and new technology.
If your gift-giving budget is a bit large, consider buying him an electronic gadget. For example, there are new weather predicting machines that will let the user know what the weather will be like outside on any given day. You can also buy a universal remote, sonic toothbrush or other useful gadget. Many online stores cater to "gadget geeks" and you can find a wide variety of suitable presents.

6. Gift certificates.
When all else fails, you can always give a gift certificate. This way, the guy on your list can get exactly what he needs. Make it a bit more personal by choosing a gift certificate from a specialty shop, such as a photo store, a computer store or a golf pro shop.
