Finding the Perfect Birthday Gift for Your Husband
Gift giving in itself is a love language we adore, especially when the time comes around to give a gift to someone most special like your partner; and what makes it even better is the occasion being his birthday. Birthday’s are primetime for gift-givers, it’s like our own mini Superbowl. We get to take all of the things we know about him and try to find things that match his likes in order to get the perfect gift.
But on the flip side of things, finding the perfect gift for your husband isn’t always a walk in the park especially if he isn’t one to give you many clues or hints as to what he wants. We love him but sometimes shopping for him can be like pulling teeth. So we decided to help with that by coming up with our own gift guide of products we believe anyone would like, but especially your husband.
Food Is The Way To The Heart 🍜
Consumables as a gift concept is often overlooked in favor of more “physical” gifts but we like to say no to that because there are so many great gifts involving food including some of the ones we found below that’ll make for a perfect gift for your husband:

Summer isn’t over yet and that means the grilling season is still here. We aren’t letting go of our favorite pastime quite yet and that means it’s the perfect time to get a brand spankin’ new grill set. Specifically the Deluxe Grill Set (20 Piece) from Cuisinart for $69.99. This highly-rated set is recommended by many grilling aficionados. Made from stainless steel, this kit comes with: “chef’s spatula, grill tongs, digital temperature fork, silicone basting brush, four pairs of corn holders, five skewers, a cleaning brush with an extra brush head, and more.” Sturdy and durable, a great pick for those who love to grill and want an upgrade.
Rubs so full of flavor you won’t wanna stop grilling! Image courtesy of: Williams Sonoma.
You can’t very well get a new grill kit without having the spices, seasonings, and rubs to back it up! There’s something really special about getting to crack open something new (and gourmet) when cooking your favorite meals. Trying something new with something reliable is always a treat, especially if that means getting more grill time before it gets too cold out. Here we have the very famous Williams Sonoma Rub Library for $99.95 - $199.90 (Single for $99 and Set of 2 for $199). In this box-set you husband will have his pick of:
Butcher's Rub
Chile Lime Rub
Smokehouse Rub
Steakhouse Rub
Potlatch Classic Seasoning
Pizza Spice Blend Pizza Seasoning
Classic Burger Bomb Seasoning
Diavolo Rub
Rosemary Garlic Rub
Parmesan Herb Rub
Taco Seasoning Blend
House Blend Rub
Make a variety of meals and choose your new favorite spice blend!
Surprise him with his very own gift basket! Image courtesy of: Harry & David.
You gotta love a good surprise and a surprise like the “Happy Birthday” Gift Basket from Harry & David for $79.99 is one that we think stands the test of time. Nothing says “happy birthday” to your partner like a gift basket randomly showing up at his work or when he gets home. It’s something he probably wasn’t expecting to get and that’s what makes this gift even better. In the birthday gift-box he will get goodies like:
Moose Munch® Premium Popcorn - classic caramel (10 oz)
Three-seed crackers (4 oz)
Pepper and Onion Relish (10 oz)
Sesame sticks (12 oz)
Chocolate Decadence Cake (12.5 oz)
Raspberry galettes (5.25 oz)
Double chocolate chunk cookie (3 oz)
A customizable card and chalkboard gift box is also added in this set which means you can write what you want to make it special for him.
Bonus Gift: Flowers
An even more unexpected gift is what makes a perfect birthday gift for your husband. Image courtesy of: 1-800-Flowers.com.
Say it with us: “boys 👏 deserve 👏 flowers 👏 too 👏” Too often men will be the ones to go and get the flowers for their partners, kids, or family members when they never get some themselves and we think that’s a travesty. So we found at 1-800-Flowers.com (a sister site to Harry & David) you can get him his very own Vibrant Floral Medley™ from $49.99 - $79.99. Pick a size and get them delivered to your husband on his birthday.
Two Tech Gifts Better Than A Meesley Check 🎧
Getting an upgrade or a very much wanted “tech” gift beats a lot of other gifts nowadays just because of how awesome some of these products are. Here are two products we love here:
Play almost any game you want all from the living room couch. Image courtesy of: Steam.
Independent hobbies are great for couples, it gives us a chance to spend some time with ourselves and enjoy something we individually love. But what we like is spending time together, alone.
What do we mean by that?
You and your husband can enjoy each other's company by being in the same room but doing two separate things. While you’re reading or playing your own games he can too with the Steam Deck.
Steam, the online disruptor of the latest and greatest games introduced their own handheld console called the Steam Deck. Where gamers can play triple A titles all in your hands laying down on the couch or on the go. There are three versions of the Steam Deck and we recommend the 512GB OLED for $549.99 which is their middle tier version. It has up to 90Hz refresh rate, 50Whr battery, and can hold all your favorite games no problem.
Listen to music, podcasts, or your games with crystal-clear sound. Image courtesy of: Best Buy.
Having a good pair of headphones can really enhance any auditory experience. Great for immersive story-driven games, audio-books, podcasts, and playlists. There are obviously a lot of headphone options out there but we have found that the Sony - WH1000XM4 Wireless Noise-Cancelling Over-the-Ear Headphones on sale for $199.99 (normally priced at $349.99) from Best Buy are the ones to go for.
This insane deal is worth the scoop up as these headphones offer clear pristine quality noise control and noise cancelling. They have a 30 hour battery life on full charge and 5 hours of playback on a ten minute quick charge, great for both short-scale and long-scale use.
Birthday Gifts That Are Just…Fun 🎾
Who said growing up needs to be boring? Certainly not us! We love a good gift that brings him back to childhood whimsey. Gifts in your adulthood don’t need to be boring, they can be like these:
"Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads." Image courtesy of: LEGO.
Nothing says time-consuming fun like LEGOs and here we have the Back to the Future Time Machine set for $199.99. Build Marty, Doc, and the DeLorean so you too can go back in time to 1985 where you’ll get up to the hijinks and adventures this dynamic duo did. This set is pretty sweet and will make for a great addition to an office space, gaming room, or display shelf full of other LEGO creations. There’s just over 1800 pieces so this will take you a hot minute but it will definitely be worth it.
Get active…in a fun way. Image courtesy of: watchitude.
Pickleball has become super popular in the last few years and it makes for a great couple’s sport because you need two at-minimum to play. (It’s also now become a great “double-date” option for a lot of couples too). There are a lot of pickleball sets out there but none with the flare that this LED Light-Up Pickleball 10' Net Set from watchitude for $140.00 has. It comes with two LED paddles, two LED balls, a 10’ LED net, and a portable carry bag. Play even when it gets dark, turn on some ambient lighting outside and get to swinging!
Even More Gifts To Add To Your Husband’s Birthday Bag 🎁
Although we absolutely love the gifts we’ve found so far for your husband there are a few more gifts we thought we’d add onto this list because nothing is better than an extra bonus gift he wasn’t expecting. Here’s a list of the top five gift cards for your husband according to our website:
🥾REI: If your husband love going on outdoor adventures than there is nowhere better to look than REI. REI (Recreational Equipment, Inc) has a wide range of products for all of these activities: climbing, hiking, camping, kayaking, canoeing, swimming, cycling, running, skiing, snowboarding, and traveling.
👖StitchFix: This online subscription service delivers clothes in your size and style directly to your door. And that’s great for your husband who doesn’t necessarily love to clothes shop. It’s super easy to get started too, all you have to do is go online to the StitchFix website and take their “Style Quiz”; then you’ll get paired with a stylist from their team who will pick out clothes they think you’d like. They come in the mail, you try them on, and then you keep and buy what you like and send back what you don’t.
🍿AMC Theatres: Who doesn’t love going to the movies? Getting a chance to see the action on the big screen? Count us in! It’s even better when you’re going to a 4k theater like AMC Theatres. With popular concessions like popcorn, candy, and more, you’ll enjoy plush seats and quality pixels with any movie you see.
📚Barnes & Noble: There are so many great books out there and for the person who loves to read you know that you can find an array of popular, hidden gems, and old classics all at Barnes & Noble. Barnes & Noble of course has thousands of books both in-store and online for your favorite reader to indulge in.
