Roku Ultra 4K Streaming Box for $ 69 ($ 31 off): If Pop already has a 4K TV, but fooled around with an old streaming box that couldn’t deliver 4K shows, he’s wasted his TV’s full potential. Upgrade it to a 4K compatible streaming box so it can finally watch its shows and movies in 4K. This one is the best and even has a headphone jack on the remote so he can listen to TV in silence while everyone else is asleep.
Apple iPad for $ 300 ($ 30 off): It’s nice to have an iPad at home. They are great for emailing, TV streaming, reading, and many other tasks. There are more sophisticated versions, but the standard iPad is probably good enough. This is a pretty standard discounted price on Amazon (it’s more expensive at Apple), but we’ve included it because it’s one of those great tech giveaways for adults.
Moment Starter Kit with two lenses for $ 249 ($ 25 off): If dad enjoys taking photos with his phone (and if he has a recent iPhone, Google Pixel, OnePlus, or Samsung phone), get him this Moment pack, which includes two lenses of your choice, a phone case, a lens cleaning pen and a rear lens cap. The case is necessary because the lenses attach to it, so make sure dad has a compatible smartphone. I recommend the 58mm telephoto lens and the 14mm fisheye lens.

Stanley Adventure Cooler
Photography: HinterlandStanley Adventure Cooler for $ 60 ($ 30 off): Not all coolers need to be metal and have a built-in audio system and cup holders. The Stanley Adventure is sturdy, relatively light, and holds 21 cans of a wide variety of drinks, such as lagers, IPAs, porters and stouts. And the soft drinks, I guess.
Brooks B17 Leather Bike Saddle for $ 104 ($ 41 off): Upgrade daddy’s bike with a premium saddle. Still made in England, the B17 has been Brooks’ best-selling saddle for over 100 years. The break-in takes a bit of time, but as a WIRED bike tester I found it more comfortable than the plastic seats that come with most bikes.
Allen Edmonds 30% Off Sale: For 99 years Allen Edmonds has been making shoes by hand in the United States. Although some models are now made overseas, many of its best-known models are still made in Wisconsin. If Dad needs a big improvement in quality over regular department store shoes, consider secretly measuring his feet and buying him a pair of AEs. They will last for many years as they can be resole and restored.
