What Are You Giving Dad This Year For Father's Day? |
My dad is SO hard to buy for, that each year at Father's Day we prefer to have him pick out his own gifts. My husband on the other hand, is SUPER easy to buy for and always genuinely delighted that we just thought of him. What both men have in common, though, is an enjoyment of movies and television series--but an aversion to commercials. That is why I would recommend Netflix for those dads on your list this Father's Day!
Netflix offers the first month FREE, at a cost of only $7.99 per month for unlimited, commercial-free movies and television. Dad will like that when he turns off Netflix, it remembers where he left off so he can resume watching on his television, computer, tablet or smartphone. If dad watches a tv series and finishes an episode, it automatically advances to the next episode--or will give him the option to choose another episode. It is very convenient, and dad can literally watch anywhere that he has an internet connection (wireless or otherwise)! If dad is a night owl or an early bird, he can tune in 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at a time that is convenient for him.

I wrote Is Netflix Right for Your Family? and how I got Netflix for Mom in past blog articles, so read either of those articles if you're looking for more detailed information. It takes about 2 minutes to sign up and get the first month of Netflix for FREE. Cancellation is done easily online with no hassles, if the option is ever needed.
Here are just a few movies that Netflix has for Father's Day:
Captain America
Coach Carter
Grown Ups
Fast and the FuriousFriday Night Lights
The Italian Job
The Longest Yard
Thor
Transformers: Dark of the Moon
UFC: Best of 2012: Year in Review
WINNER: To be announced shortly...
