It has a tendency to sneak up on you, so this year we’re giving you plenty of warning: Father’s Day is on Sunday, 18 June. Whether it’s helping the kids find something for their dad or looking for a present for your own dad - men can be very difficult to buy for. While socks are always handy and everyone loves a bottle opener, maybe it’s time to surprise him with something a little different. Matalan would like you to go through the range of Father's Day goodies here, and post links to your favourites on the thread.

Matalan want you to take full advantage of their range of Father’s Day gifts available in store, so why not pay them a visit and see what you can find. If you post photos of your purchases and links to your Matalan gift ideas on this thread, you’ll be entered into a prize draw where one lucky MNer will win a £250 Matalan voucher.

If you can’t get to the store just have a look HERE and post a link to what you think the dad in your life would like, and you’ll also be entered into the prize draw. If you’re a dad yourself, do (PLEASE) share what you’d really like to get from the Matalan range this Father’s Day.

If you need some more inspiration, Matalan have asked some little ones why their dad is special to them - you can watch here!

Matalan also invite you to take part in their Nobody Dads it Better competition to win £1000 worth of holiday vouchers. Just share a video that shows why the dad in your life is so special. To find out more just click here.

Thanks and good luck with the prize draw,

I know my husband would enjoy flashing these socks at the kids when there is a conversation he wants to avoid!

My Dad is no longer with us, but Matalan have some good gifts that my children would like to give to their Dad. Their belts like this one are really good value.

My hubby would like this www.matalan.co.uk/product/detail/s2651249/the-boss-slogan-mug-andsocks--10cm-x-8cm

So he can pretend he's the boss 😂😂

DH could do with a soft dressing gown after I nicked his last one.
This t-shirt would be a good way to get DS, who's too young to pick out a gift, involved and is a design DS would like himself.

Huge star wars fan household and my partner would like this Star Wars t-shirts.

My kids dad is forever moaning that he's got nothing to wear for bed. I've bought him PJs but they are "for old people's HELP me " oospartnered

Untangled07 · 10/06/2017 09:48

I think I'd get one of these 'King Of The Garden' mug and socks set, as my dad is really into his gardening!:

I'm impressed with these: www.matalan.co.uk/product/detail/s2648341_c270/hand-stitched-detail-espadrilles-navy - look really stylish and like they would be suitably comfortable to meet DH's approval. Whilst he has many wonderful qualities, not least being a fabulous and dedicated hands-on Dad to our 3 DC, alas, his sense of style can be a little 'wanting'!! So any opportunity to help in this area and at a good price is very welcome!

welshmardymum · 10/06/2017 11:04

He'd love these www.matalan.co.uk/product/detail/s2651609_c438/gift-pyjamas-in-a-bag-grey

These PJs look a perfect fathers day gift!

I was in Matalan last week restocking the fast growing daughter's wardrobe and didn't notice anything in store but looking online the Dad Rocks mug is pretty cool.

I'd go slightly off-piste for my DF who has just started baking his own pizzas but doesn't have any kit yet with
