12 Cheap Father's Day Gifts Under $20 — Just Because You're Broke Doesn't Mean You Can't Get Dad Something Awesome

Maybe you don't feel like getting dad a Father's Day tie this year (though in my opinion, you can never go wrong with a good tie), but maybe you're still too broke to get him anything that's much pricier. No worries! These affordable Father's Day gifts are the perfect solution. From mustache mugs to burger smashers, these presents are so cool that dad won't even notice the price tag. Besides, it's all about the thought, and these gifts couldn't be more thoughtful.
