If you purchased a Father's Day gift, how much did you spend?

According to a new report, Dads don't seem to get as much love on Father's Day as Moms do on Mother's Day.  We are spending more than 20% less on Dad than we do on Mom!

So, we were curious, did you buy a Father's Day gift this year?  If so, how much did you spend?  Please tell us what you think.  We want to know!

$200 or more (7.3%)

$100-$199 (12.5%)

$50-$99 (22.4%)

$25-$49 (22.5%)

up to $25 (35.5%)

    My dad sits out by the pool all summer so I bought him new Chaise Lounge chairs to match my parents new patio set. They are So comfortable from Bed Bath & Beyond that I want them for myself!

    For Father's Day i took a nice picture of my three kids and had it enlarged. Then i bought a nice picture frame and that was his gift. I spent about $40.00. I didn;t have a lot of money but it didn't matter to him, he loved the present.

    My dad is almost 90. He's not active anymore and doesn't need much more than he already has. I gave him a nice Father's Day card with some cash inside. That is what he can use most.

    I bought my dad a movie that he had been wanting to see. It was nice to be able to watch it with him. I'm lucky that my parents aren't very material and they appreciate small things. :)

    It just seems dads don't need or want much, clothes are always a good gift for them since they don't buy them for themselves!
