Father’s Day is coming up on Sunday, June 21, and if you’re scratching your head trying to figure out what to get Dad this year, you’re not alone.
Let’s be honest—dads can be notoriously difficult to shop for.
Ask them what they want and you’ll likely hear, “I don’t need anything.”
Buy them a gift and they’ll tell you they already have one.
So this Father’s Day, why not give Dad something he’ll actually love: the freedom to choose for himself!
Give the Gift of Downtown Dollars
Downtown Dollars are the perfect Father’s Day gift because they can be spent at more than 200 participating shops, restaurants, cafés, barbershops, and businesses throughout Downtown Stratford.
Whether your dad is a foodie, a fashion enthusiast, an avid reader, a grill master, a cyclist, or simply enjoys exploring everything our downtown has to offer, Downtown Dollars let him pick exactly what he wants.
What Could Dad Spend His Downtown Dollars On?
The better question might be: what couldn’t he spend them on?
Here are just a few ideas:
- A classic barber shop shave
- A set of sophisticated whisky glasses
- A stylish new shirt
- Dinner and drinks at one of Stratford’s amazing restaurants
- Cycling or active lifestyle gear
- A new pair of sunglasses
- A relaxing pedicure (yes, dads deserve pampering too!)
- A great book for his next read
- BBQ tools and grilling accessories
- Premium meats for the grill
- Fun socks with plenty of personality
- Locally crafted beer
- Sweet treats and specialty foods
The possibilities are nearly endless.
And the best part? You don’t have to guess what Dad wants. He gets the fun of deciding for himself.
