Walmart offers Father's Day gifts for the man cave

Want to accessorize the big guy's man cave on the cheap? Then Wal-Mart Stores Inc. claims it has the Father's Day gift selection for you.

Starting June 14, the chain will offer many deals on such man-cave necessities as Blu-ray movies, select DVDs, and "video game bundles," Arkansas-based Walmart said in a press release.

One example: $59.96 Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 Wii bundle with Wii Motion Plus Accessory and protective sleeve. It will be available in stores starting June 16. (Woods is shown at right in a file photo.)

Just as Franklin Park zoologists scrutinize the behavior of Little Joe, the thinking man's gorilla, Walmart studies the domestic habits - and consumer needs - of dads. Drawing on its dad research, Walmart has apparently determined that the man cave, like the universe, is ever expanding. Pop's domain, according to Walmart, now takes in a "garage cave."

And no garage cave would be complete, the chain humbly suggests, without a $15 Black & Decker 75-piece drill accessory kit or a $15 Carrand Power Jet Wash Wand.

And don't forget the $149 Royal Oak Deluxe Charcoal Grill for the al fresco man cave. With lots of cooking surface, it's ideal for barbecuing choice hog meats or filet mignons the size of catcher's mitts.
