The 12 Best Deals This Week (Including Paris Park Chair Dupes)
In the words of someone's dad, it's go time. Summer is here and Father's Day is just one extra-charred bratwurst away (so, a week-ish), which means there are all kinds of unfurling kitchen and food deals from brands designed to soup up the occasion. Granted, they orbit around the ooga-booga markers of 'manliness,' such as flasks and bouquets of meat, but I'm eager for any opportunity to buy a knife sharpener at 30 percent off. Last week, we cleared Goldbelly's shelves of Chicago-style hot dog kits and other summertime treats, scooped up the best heritage cookware brand items from Nordstrom's Half-Yearly sale, and browsed REI's camping kitchen sale. This week, the outdoorsy vibe continues with deals from Yeti on durable, I-dropped-it-on-a-rock-by-the-creek barware sets; aesthetic designer glassware from SSENSE's (always intriguing but right now up to 60 percent off) sale; and coffee-lover gifts from Bespoke Post's Father's Day sale section. Slip into something more comfortable (this leather oven mitt, perchance?) and let's shop. Score 20% off barware sets at Yeti Unsurprisingly, Yeti — the brand beloved for its classic, rugged coolers — makes durable, camping-ready barware sets. You can get up to 20 percent off barware sets for Father's Day, including flasks, shot glasses, and cocktail shakers that are made out of 18/8 stainless steel, making them dishwasher-safe and resistant to corrosion. For taking shots and flasks on the camping trip | Yeti Prices taken at time of publishing. Take lowballs on-the-go | Yeti Prices taken at time of publishing. Aesthetic kitchen items and drinkware are up to 60% off at SSENSE SSENSE, home to apparel and accessories by rising and established designers such as Collina Strada, Rick Owens, and Chopova Lowena, is also the keeper of some incredible designer glassware, cookware, and kitchen items. There's a 60 percent off sale live on the site right now, and the barware section is full of particularly personality-heavy finds, from amorphous hand-blown glasses reminiscent of Alexander Kirkeby (that cost a fraction of the price) to a set of tumblers that nod to vintage uranium glassware. This chic water carafe is 52% off | SSENSE Prices taken at time of publishing. Just in time for summer, this substantial set of tumblers | SSENSE Prices taken at time of publishing. This palette-shaped cutting board is 20% off | SSENSE Prices taken at time of publishing. This set of hand-blown glasses for juice and spiked iced tea | SSENSE Prices taken at time of publishing.

Each box includes single-origin coffee (which can be traced to one farm, farmer, producer or region in a country) and educational resources such as tasting notes for that particular batch.

It's extremely last-minute friendly and just a fun way to try something new every month,' says Jordan Thomas, assistant deals editor at Forbes Vetted. Firstleaf If Dad is a wine connoisseur who enjoys trying new varieties (or simply wants to learn more about wine), a Firstleaf subscription is a creative gift he'll be able to enjoy every night.

For $60 a month, you'll get a monthly member credit that can be used on a set or single item up to $100. There are hundreds of items to choose from, ranging from versatile quick-dry jackets to joggers to workout t-shirts.

The best Father's Day gifts show your appreciation and are often things your dad wouldn't think to splurge on himself. To find thoughtful presents for virtually every type of father figure, we considered a variety of interests: We're talking personalized barbecue supplies for the backyard grill master, supportive sneakers for the fitness buff and a helpful pocket-sized tech gadget for the frequent flier. Is your dad more a creature of comfort? We made sure to include cozy essentials too, from stretchy, yet sleek sweatpants to our sleep editors' absolute favorite pillow.

If Dad loves nothing more than a savory spread of meat and cheese, this Father's Day-themed charcuterie board will be the way to his heart. Designed, packaged and delivered directly to his front door by Boarderie, the bundle comes packed with artisan cheeses, meats, dried fruits, nuts, chocolates, olives and more. You can choose between three sizes, starting at $139 for a two to three person board. And the best part? Every order has free overnight delivery, so it's great if you're short on time. Named our best overall subscription box for men, Bespoke Post is a favorite among Forbes Vetted editors and readers thanks to its highly customizable options. The service will be specifically geared towards his hobbies and interests, so all Dad will have to do is fill out a quiz upon joining and he'll receive a monthly assortment of goods from barware and travel essentials to clothing and accessories, based entirely on his preferences. He'll also get to preview what's in each box and because Bespoke Post pulls from up-and-coming brands, he'll likely discover some new favorite small businesses along the way. Whether you've seen the brand on Shark Tank or it's your first time learning about it, this is one gadget that's actually useful for a dad on the go. Larq uses UV-C LED light to eliminate up to 99.9% of bio-contaminants from your water and bottle, plus the bottle's hydration tracking system will encourage him to drink more of the good stuff throughout his busy day. The double-wall vacuum insulation also keeps liquids icy cold for 24 hours and comes with a detachable handle, removable filter straw and bottle filter. If Dad loves to share photos in the family group chat, a digital frame like this one from Aura will be a home run. Simply log onto Wi-Fi to add pictures and videos of the kiddos from holidays, vacations and birthday parties and he'll be grinning from ear to ear when he unwraps it. Aura offers frames in different colors and styles, many of which are available for speedy two-day Prime shipping. This lightweight and responsive sneaker is bound to be a hit with any dad who loves to run, jog or power walk—or who simply spends a lot of time on his feet. It's designed with a nitrogen-injected midsole for adaptive support and a mesh upper with subtle suede overlays to help ensure both breathability and structure. Choose from 16 colorways, ranging from black and white to bright blue or orange, to suit his style. Via Carota is one of the most beloved restaurants in New York City, and now Dad can enjoy a happy hour from the Italian hot spot without having to wait (and wait) for a table. The Via Carota Craft Cocktails Bourbon Gift Set has everything he'll need to toast fatherhood: bottles of pre-made (and seriously smooth) Old Fashioned and Manhattan cocktails, plus a pair of Italian-made lowball glasses and a gold stirrer. Cheers! Popular among Forbes Vetted editors and readers (and the best overall fire pit, based on our rigorous testing), the Solo Stove Bonfire Fire Pit is portable so Dad (and his friends and family) can sit around the fire anytime, anywhere. It's also smokeless for cleaner, more comfortable breathing. Bonus: If you buy from Solo Stove, you can personalize it with custom text or logos. For discerning dads who love premium sweets and competitive game play, Compartés' Luxury Grandmaster Chocolate Chess Set is the delight he never saw coming. Inside the emerald green croc-printed case, he'll find a full chess set handcrafted from incredibly creamy gourmet chocolate that's made in Los Angeles. The chocolatier also offers delicious truffles infused with 18-year Macallan single-malt scotch if Dad is more of a whiskey connoisseur. If Dad is serious about improving his wellness, give him a smart ring that's sleek, modern and helps improve his health. The Ōura Ring is a health, sleep and activity tracker that's packed with sensors to keep him meaningfully informed. Founded on Nordic wellness principles of balance, it collects data on more than 20 biometrics—like heart rate, blood oxygen and activity—and sends insights to an app to help you create a custom sleep schedule, track stress levels and more. Any gift labeled Hermès is going to be a hit on Father's Day. But for the dad who's been thinking about switching up his regular scent, this is a great option. The brand's first major men's fragrance to be released in 15 years, it trades the usual woody notes of a cologne for something a bit lighter. The result is a fresh scent with botanical notes of clary sage, narcissus and rosewood. He'll like it, and just as importantly, so will Mom. If you're shopping for a foodie who looks forward to cooking new cuisines, you'll hit the gifting jackpot with Goldbelly's Chef Of The Month subscription. Dad will get a monthly curated chef kit of the most sought-after delicacies curated by pros like Michael Symon, David Chang and José Andrés. From the savory to the sweet, it'll be a fun monthly surprise—and maybe he'll even save you a bite. If your sandwich aficionado dad isn't the family chef, this Hamilton Beach breakfast sandwich maker will be his new best friend. All he has to do is put his favorite bread in the bottom and top layers, followed by an egg and additional toppings to create a mouthwatering meal. It's ready in just five minutes with minimal cleanup needed. From the mind of Neil Patrick Harris, Box One is the perfect gift for the father figure that loves nothing more than a good game night. Full of trivia, puzzles, secret codes and more, the brain-teasing board game is designed to play by yourself—or if Dad prefers, the whole family can get in on the fun. The JBL waterproof Bluetooth speaker lets Dad play his tunes anywhere and everywhere from the beach to the trail to the garage where he's tinkering with his latest project. It has 10 hours of battery life for all-day listening and a clip that makes it easy to attach to a bag or stroller. If Dad's signature cap is getting a little worse for wear, replace it with one that's trendy and built to last. This 100% cotton canvas style from Carhartt is available in over 60 colors, so there's sure to be one that suits him perfectly. Even better, it has a built-in band that's fast-drying and will wick away summer sweat. Whether he's a super fan of the YouTube series, Hot Ones, or just likes to slather spicy goodness over his wings and tacos, invite Dad to try the Hot Ones Challenge at home with this official 10-pack set featuring the sauces from season 26 of the interview show. From mild, garlicky flavors like Señor Lechuga (1/10 spice level) to the intense heat of The Last Dab: Xperience (11/10), there's an option to delight every taste bud. Your favorite grill master will love kicking off summer with this personalized steak brand. Exclusive to Williams Sonoma, you have the option to personalize it with single, double or triple initials. The iron brand is hand forged by a Texan cattle ranger and includes a wall mounting storage rack for display. Sometimes it's the simple things that mean the most, and there's nothing more delightful to a dad than a box full of jerky. Each month, he'll get different brands and flavors so he's always trying something new. It's available in one, three, six and twelve-month subscriptions, but no matter which you choose chances are he'll wish it lasted forever. Skip the stress of gift-giving and have a laugh while Dad opens Harry & David's Seven Days Of Dad Jokes Gift Box. Each cheesy joke-labeled compartment will reveal snacks including caramel popcorn, trail mix, cookies, hickory-smoked sausage and, fittingly, cheese. Order it now and boxes will start shipping on May 12, well in advance of the holiday. If Dad is still using that lumpy, old pillow every night, treat him to a much needed upgrade. The Coop Home Goods Adjustable Pillow was named our best pillow overall after a year of testing, thanks to its plush shredded memory foam that perfectly cradles your neck and head. It's also entirely adjustable, meaning Dad can add or take out fill in order to get the exact level of firmness needed for his favorite nap position. Named our best overall walking shoe for men, the On Cloud 5 sneaker is crafted with science-backed CloudTec foam, a forgiving material with a cushioned feel that has been described as 'running on clouds.' It features a removable cushioned arch insole, plus a Speedboard running the length of the sneaker that promotes stability when walking to help Dad reach his daily step goal. Courant's wireless chargers offer a stylish way to stay powered up. The Mag:3 is a multi-device charger that's bound in either leather or linen. It also has a drop tray for stashing trinkets, which means he can juice up his tech and empty his pockets all in one place. Perfect for the pops who lives in his Saturday sweats, this stylish option by Vuori not only looks good, it's just as cozy as his favorite worn-in pair. The joggers have built-in boxer briefs, are moisture-wicking and feature a much-appreciated four-way stretch. Throw in the matching jacket to make it a full set. The Therabody SmartGoggles, our pick for best sleep tech device, will be a welcome relief for the dad that stares at a computer screen for hours each day. The goggles offer a combination of heat, vibration and pressure therapy, which can increase circulation, ease aches and pains and promote relaxation before bed. Therabody's Theragun Mini Massage Gun is also a thoughtful gift for soothing sore muscles post-workout. Looking for a fun family activity for Father's Day? Republic's 100 Things To Do With Dad Bucket List Scratch Book will give you tons of ideas, from hitting up the arcade to touring the local planetarium. The book features space for you to document your adventures afterwards, as well as meaningful quotes about the beauty of fatherhood. For the busy new dad who needs to be hands-free, this Lalabu t-shirt will be a hit. The first baby-wearing design of its kind to be made specifically for dads, it can hold newborns up to 15 pounds without the trouble of buckles, snaps or swaddling. All he has to do is tuck the baby into the supportive front pouch and continue on with his to-do list. If Dad loves to travel, spare him the airline-provided headphones with AirFly's wireless headphone adapter. Now, he can watch all of his favorite movies, shows or games with the comfort of his own (likely noise-canceling) headphones. Give Dad the gift of a caffeine pick-me-up with an Atlas Coffee subscription, a top pick in our best coffee subscriptions story. Available in whole bean, ground, Keurig pods or Nespresso pods, you'll be able to customize the recurring shipment to his preferences. Each delivery also comes with postcards that include tasting notes and history about each country's unique coffee growing methods. Your Dad's not a regular dad; he's a super dad. And with this gift set from Happy Socks, he can prove it at all times. The three cotton-blend pairs are comfy, colorful and will make him smile every time he slips them on. The set is also blissfully available with two-day Prime shipping. Whether Dad is planning a family vacation abroad this summer or just loves to explore new cultures from his living room, a subscription to the language-learning app Babbel will help broaden his horizons. Simply choose from standard or premium packages that span six, twelve or twenty-four months, and leave it up to Dad to select which of the 14 languages he wants to master. If he loves grilling in the backyard as much as he does hitting the green, the Poligo Golf Club Grilling Set is a thoughtful last-minute father's day gift that combines two of his favorite pastimes. The seven-piece stainless steel barbecue set includes tongs, a spatula, a fork and a basting brush—each with a handle designed to resemble a golf grip—plus a pair of golf ball salt and pepper shakers and a storage bag. Naturally, it's a hole-in-one gift. Father's Day always falls on the third Sunday in June. This year, it's June 15. When it comes to celebrating Father's Day, it truly is the thought that counts. In addition to having some quality time to do what he enjoys—relaxing with a beer, playing a round of golf or spending time with family (likely his top choice)—dads love to feel appreciated. In terms of gift-giving, presents that cater to his interests are a sweet way to show how much you care. This can mean a splurge-worthy surprise, like a quality outdoor fire pit, or something thoughtful, like an Atlas Coffee Club subscription or digital photo frame. You don't have to spent a small fortune to spoil Dad on Father's Day. Spending quality time with family is one of the best ways to celebrate the day, whether it's a brunch gathering, an adventure outdoors or a few rounds of a favorite game. Presents don't have to cost a lot, either; this list includes several under-$50 gifts, from a nifty breakfast sandwich maker to a portable (and waterproof) Bluetooth speaker. Need more shopping inspiration? We have several gift guides to help you find the perfect present for every dad in your life.
