Think Outside the Box this Father’s Day

June 3rd, 2008

Every year it’s the same thing. At the beginning of June, stores start to stock up on golf supplies, weird gadgets and, of course, ties. These generic offerings seem to be the best thing that retailers can come up with for father’s day. It’s like merchants have a specific idea of what dad’s are and what they like, and it never seems to change. So, most dad’s are now in possession of an obscene amount of ties (whether they wear them for work or not), an outrageous amount of golf balls and tees (whether they play or not), and a collection of strange gizmos that never get played and just take up space. This year, though, you should do something different and actually get something for your dad that he can use and enjoy.

Most dads are nothing if not practical. The usefulness of a CAA membership is sure to appeal to your dad’s sensible side, and it means that your dad will actually get some use out of his father’s day gift this year, which is sure to please him. One of the greatest things about a CAA membership is that it covers the person, not just their own vehicle. That means, if you take your dad out to a father’s day meal in your car and it breaks down, he can use his father’s day gift to receive assistance.

Some of the coverage your dad will receive as part of his CAA membership includes:

• Battery boosting
• Towing service to the nearest service station
• Emergency gasoline delivery
• Flat tire service
• Lockout service
• Extrication service
• Up to $300 trip accident insurance
• And more!

A CAA membership also gives its members discounts to popular attractions and hotels, and savings on insurance and stores that have partnerships with CAA. So, this father’s day think outside the box, and surprise your dad with a gift that he’ll actually use.
