If your father is like mine, he doesn’t require much for Father’s Day. Just a sleeve of his favorite golf balls or a heartfelt card will make him a happy camper.
But that doesn’t mean we can’t spoil our dads anyway, right? Especially when these deals make it so easy:
Amazon.com: If his leisure time is spent with his nose in a book, catch him up with the first novel in the Stieg Larsson series, “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo,” on sale at amazon.com for $7.99, paperback. Or get all three (two paperbacks and a hardback) for less than $30.
