Apparel, alcohol and vouchers are also popular ideas, with about 1 in 3 thinking to buy. We find too, that approximately a third of people will also include a greeting card alongside their other purchases, so if anyone was wondering there’s still a demand for this old-school item in this technological day and age. 46% usually already know what they want to buy ahead of time, and of those who are still undecided, the overwhelming majority browse online for inspiration. Many also check out options in-store and flip through store catalogues, or ask people for ideas.

However, the conclusions are quite well-aligned between the givers and the recipients, with some little divergences that could be interesting to investigate further – for example, only 11% of people are planning to buy electrical appliances, but 24% of dads said they would love this type of item for a present. Meanwhile, 31% are purchasing alcohol, but only 17% of dads are really craving a boozy gift. **Want to do a deeper dive into our survey results?
