Gift Giving Guy

Need a last-minute guy gift without wandering the aisles of Walmart on Christmas Eve? (If you do, skip the socks department. Yes, men need tube socks, but please not for Christmas.)

Almost all the shipping deadlines for online retailers have passed. But you can still e-mail electronic gift cards or print gift announcements that appeal to his interests. Keep in mind that some e-gift cards can only be used online and not at a retailer’s brick-and-mortar store. And, of course, some of the 21 links below aren’t just for men.
