Since September 3rd 2001 I’ve hated on Father’s Day, it was the day my Dad passed away. Only very recently did I abandon such feelings, with a lot of help and a stack of lifestyle changes. Without sounding too morbid, I even avoided visiting his grave until recently. But I’m not the only one without a dad, plus now I’m one!
So, with the 1stof September looming it’s time to give you some advice for your great man! We’ve spoken about Adrenaline before, it’s that mob that offer some very wild thrill-seeking packages. But let’s face it many of us can never figure out what gift to get anyone, let alone your dad. Well cue the launch of Adrenaline’s new online Gift Matching Generator.
All you do is select your ‘dad type’, where he lives and how much you want to splurge. Then the generator will produce a choice of gift experiences, personally suited to match. Basically, there’s now no excuse to buy some Best & Less socks.
Experiences start from as little as $30 and cover all six States and two Territories.
The gift generator searches by how you describe your dad:
The Family Man
Loves to spend time with the family and wants to make the memories with something you can all enjoy e.g.:
- 7-day super pass: Warner Bros. Movie World, Sea World & Wet n Wild, Gold Coast + FREE BONUS Entry to Paradise Country

- Go Whale Watching – Sydney
The Thrill Seeker
Wants a little more adventure out of the day and isn’t afraid to get the pulse racing e.g.:
