Dads, sons, brothers-in-law, oldest friends — all guys appreciate a thoughtfully picked present during the holidays. So if you haven’t started thinking about what to wrap up this year, now’s the time to head to Walmart.

As we move into the busiest shopping time of the year, the retailer’s signature wide range means there’s something for every type of guy on your list. Sporting gear and tools for healthy eating? Check. Movies and games that they’ll happily lose hours with? Yup, those, too.

Think about the things that make him tick on the weekends or after work (or even during work), and then start browsing. Don’t let anything make you think, Yeah, but that’s way too specific — because, honestly, it’s not. Practical presents abound (including an entire set of different soaps and sprays to clean his car), but there are also souped-up LEGO sets and miniature hip-hop icons doubling as holiday decor, too.

Spot something he’d love? Go with your gut and take action. There’s no denying how great it will feel to be done with your holiday shopping early this year.
