Avoid the Reindeer Sweater
Car guys don't want to wear a snowflake sweater for the annual family photo. Get them some automotive apparel that lets them show their love for the classics. Classic car auction company Mecum Auctions offers a nice selection of "Mecum Gear," including T-shirts, hooded sweatshirts, hats and jackets. T-shirts and hats start at $10, and Mecum also offers logo'd flashlights and tire pressure gauges. See the wide variety at www.mecumgear.com.
Spread Cheer, Not Grime
After all the snowmobiles are put away and the bikes are assembled under the tree, don't send your friends to Christmas dinner with dirty hands. Get them a selection of hand cleaning products from GOJO (starting at $2.99) and PURELL (starting at $0.99). We suggest GOJO Cherry Gel Pumice Hand Cleaner, a heavy duty hand cleaner with pumice scrubbers that quickly cleans the heaviest dirt.
