Custom Beer Bottles:
Remove the label of your dad’s favorite beer by soaking it in water and using soap and a sponge to scrub it off. Now for the label: print any 3.5″ picture by going to to a Kiosk at Walmart or Walgreens and print it from your flash drive. Use a spray adhesive to attach the picture as the new label. Be sure to spray at least 8″ away from the back of the pic and give it at least 30 seconds to become tacky. (Oh – and make sure the bottles are dry. Let’s not be nimrods.)
If you can edit the text or put a funny title on it – even better.
The cheapest way is to do this yourself. Expect to pay $0.30 per label, $8.00 for a 6 pack, $7.00 for the spray adhesive. Or you can go to a place like BottleYourBrand.com and have them design and print them your beer bottles labels for you.
Seeing as how your reading this site today for ideas on what to do because you STILL haven’t done anything and TODAY is Father’s Day – go with the DIY approach.
5 Free Alibis:
This can be printed from any computer. Give your Dad 5 free times when you will back him up and validate his alibi. ‘Course, this sounds a bit disfunctional but seeing as how we live in America, this should apply to at least 95% of us.
You can download free coupon templates for Word at Microsoft Office online.
DISCLAIMER: I cannot believe I have to do these but for the Super Nimrods of the world, DO NOT use the alibi coupons if the police are involved. They DO NOT hold up in court. Not that I know but it’s what I’ve heard.
How did you make Father’s Day interesting this year?
Update: My daughter gave me a present for my birthday today: It included “3 free alibis”! lol – some little sweet thing has been reading my posts! It was so adorable – though a little disconcerting. She is 11 after all….
