Don't have much cash to spend, but you want a good gift for a man? Here's a list of ideas, and how to effectively use them.
1. VIDEO GAMES $50 - $70
If you can pull this one off, that man will truly appreciate the effort. Seriously.
Look at the man's video game collection. See what genre he enjoys. Do some research. For example, a man with a taste for football games would love to have the newest Madden. Look it up. A man with a taste for role-playing games may want to own the latest Final Fantasy game.
Stick with the console that they play the most. If they play Xbox, get an Xbox game. If they play Nintendo, get a Nintendo game. If they play playstation, get a playstation game.
Pre-ordered games; look up the most anticipated games of the year and order in advance. There's nothing like being assured of a place in the front of the line.
2. MP3 PLAYERS $120 - $160
This one may depend on the technical prowess of the man. Try www.cnet.com for reviews and advice on the latest and greatest.
Re-certified ipod nanos ($120-$150) can be found on the Apple Store's recertified section (google: recertified ipod) These ipods are usually in excellent condition, and make a great replacement or upgrade. (www.apple.com)
The iRiver Clix (~$160) is a small device that can store and play movies, along with mp3s. Most techno-savvy men would have a great time just trying to figure it out. (google: iriver clix)
3. OMAHA STEAKS $29.99 - $89.99
What man doesn't love steaks? Vegans, that's who. But for the meat-eating man, these gifts make a tasty treat. (http://www.omahasteaks.com)
4. HOME-BREW KIT $69.99 - $200

5. THE MP4 WATCH $189
