Free Father’s Day Cards & Other Printables

You won’t run out of free greeting cards for Father’s Day. During any kind of occasion each year, the graphic designers and lifestyle bloggers of the world share awesome cards and printables completely free for anyone who needs them.

If you have a printer and would like something else than ordinary greeting cards, here are some cool (but free) ideas:

  • Custom coupon book – Give your dad a book of coupons with his favorite things or most-hated chores, such as ‘free dozen of his favorite choco chip cookies’ or ‘free car wash’ that you’re willing to do for him whenever he “redeems” the coupons.
  • A book all about dad – This one is requires a bit more effort than just filling out a card, so I’m sure your dad would appreciate it.
  • Custom mug, shirt, and so on – Got access to a printing service? How about using these free printable graphics  with funny ‘Best Farter Father’ or ‘Ain’t no Hood like Fatherhood’ statements? You can print these on any material you like from a cap, t-shirt, mug, mouse pad, pillowcase, and any other media you can think of. If you don’t have a local printing shop, maybe you’d like to try an iron-on project instead.

Skip traditional Father’s Day cards and go with 3D printable ones like this toolbox or cool pop-up cards. Not only would these wow your dad for sure, but making them is pretty fun as well.

Free Dinner, Food Takeouts & Delivery on Father’s Day

Because this year is a challenging year for everyone, from the ordinary workers to businesses, even restaurants are adjusting to the new normal. There aren’t a lot of Father’s Day freebies available at your go-to restaurants.

If you’re wondering which food spots have current Father’s Day offers, deals, discounts and freebies, make sure to bookmark this page. I’m listing uncooked food, takeouts and drinks that are either discounted or completely free exactly on Father’s Day, or from now until June 21.

  • Father’s Day Steaks – Is your dad the best griller in the world? If so, Omaha Steaks has drool-worthy promos specially for him. From the Father’s Day T-Bone Dinner to the Father’s Day: KING-CUT T-Bone Gift, I’m pretty sure he’ll love you for this. You’ll need your mom’s help with this one since these packages aren’t free, but just heavily discounted.

The following restaurants have been keeping these Father’s Day restaurant specials an annual thing for several years now, but you still have to double-check a week before June 21 if they are still available this year, and if the branch near you has made it available locally as well.

  • Beef ‘O’ Brady’s – Every Father’s Day, dads can eat here free, as long as your group purchases anything $10 or higher.

Get Him to Choose

If you can’t think of anything, you buy your dad an Amazon gift card or any other gift card from their favorite online store. Here’s how you can get these for free:

  • Answer surveys: Take a few minutes of your time each day to answer surveys on PrizeRebel and Survey Junkie.
  • Complete a task on Rewards sites/apps: Sites like InstaGCSwagBucks, and Inbox Dollars pay you with rewards or points by doing tasks like downloading an app, shopping online using a particular browser, or playing a new game. Once you save enough points, you can redeem these for gift cards or cash (usually via PayPal).
  • Play games: Apps like MistPlay lets you play mobile games non-stop in exchange for points, which you can then redeem for your preferred gift cards or cash.

Does your dad enjoy playing online games? Maybe you can give him Steam gift cards instead?

Are there Any in-store Father’s Day activities?

Actually, there are, but there aren’t a lot of in-store activities right now.

For example, if you’re near the Cactus Rose Pottery, you can join the Family Day on June 19th and get your kid to decorate a can Koozie and make a card for Father’s Day.

For zoos, museums, spots like KOA Campgrounds, and other similar local places, if they’ve resumed operations by June 20th, there’s a big chance dads are given free admission on Father’s Day.

If you really want to go out to celebrate Father’s Day, I recommend you call or e-mail your favorite local spot to see if they’re entertaining on June 21.

As you can see from the many Father’s Day freebies and gift ideas here, you shouldn’t let a pandemic keep you from honoring your dad this year.
