Last-Minute Father’s Day Gift Ideas That Don’t Feel Rushed

Last-Minute Father’s Day Gift Ideas That Don’t Feel Rushed

Father’s Day always seems to sneak up out of nowhere. One minute you're thinking it's months away and the next you're in a full-blown Google spiral, searching “last-minute Father’s Day gifts Australia” and wondering whether you can still send something that doesn’t feel, well, last-minute.

We believe great gifting shouldn’t come with stress or express shipping fees. That’s why we’ve curated a collection of gift boxes that are ready to go, easy to order and full of small-but-mighty surprises. Whether your dad’s a foodie, a snack-lover, a chilli fiend or just someone who deserves a moment of joy, we’ve got something to match.

Each gift comes beautifully packed, with standard shipping included and a personalised, handwritten card because the message matters just as much as what’s inside the box.

Whether you’re after a beef jerky hamper or just something better than a generic voucher, these boxes are curated to impress. Here are three of our favourite options for Father’s Day 2025 that prove thoughtful doesn’t have to mean complicated.

Socks & Sauce: Father's Day Gift Box for the No-Fuss Dad

Two luxe essentials from Aussie brands we genuinely adore. This one’s simple, satisfying and surprisingly elevated, Socks & Sauce  is perfect for the dad who appreciates bold flavour and seriously good socks.

What’s inside:

  • Old Bones Chilli Co. Sweet Garlic Chilli Sauce: A cult favourite that’s sweet, garlicky and just the right amount of kick. Ideal for drizzling over, well, everything.\
  • Banabae Socks: Sustainably made from organic cotton, these socks are soft, comfortable and have serious style cred. Suitable for couch days, BBQ duty or just existing in comfort. Each box includes a black or white pair.

This is the kind of gift that feels effortless but thoughtful. A little spicy, a little stylish and all-around Dad-approved.

Hands-On Hero: A Jerky Hamper for the Dad Who Does It All

For the dad who’s always doing. Whether he’s fixing the fence, hanging shelve  or showing up at a moment’s notice with his toolkit in tow, this box is built for him. With a mix of practical self-care and satisfying treats, Hands-On Hero delivers a little R&R for the man who usually puts himself last.

What’s inside:

  • Tiger Buck Beef Jerky: Made from 100% unprocessed Australian beef and free from artificial flavours and colours, this jerky is high-protein and full of rich, savoury flavour.
  • Chocilo Melbourne Caramelised Popcorn: Crunchy, decadent caramelised popcorn coated in creamy milk chocolate; seriously addictive and unapologetically indulgent.
  • Aussie Man Hands Hand Repair Cream: A deeply hydrating, non-greasy hand cream made for hardworking hands. No slick finish, no fuss, just relief.
  • Fluffe Fairy Floss: Light, melt-in-your-mouth sweetness with a refreshing (non-alcoholic) champagne twist. Handmade in Sydney and a little unexpected.

This gift is all pamper, no pretence. It’s a thoughtful, feel-good way to thank Dad for all the jobs, big and small, he’s done without being asked.

Hot Stuff & Cool Socks: The Ultimate Jerky Gift Box Australia

If your dad loves a bit of heat, a good snack and always seems to be on BBQ duty, Hot Stuff & Cool Socks is an absolute winner. It’s bold, flavour-packed, and built for dads who like things with a little edge.

What’s inside:

  • Banabae RAD DAD Socks: Stylish, organic cotton socks with major main-character energy. White or black included
  • Tiger Buck Beef Jerky: 100% Aussie beef, high-protein, full-flavour and no artificial ingredients.
  • Old Bones Chilli Co. Smoked Garlic Chilli Sauce: A smoky, punchy small-batch hot sauce that’s big on flavour and not for the faint-hearted.
  • Chocilo Melbourne Chocolate-Covered Pretzels: Crunchy, salty, chocolatey. The ultimate sweet-savoury finisher.

This one’s for the flavour enthusiast - the dad who likes bold combinations and knows how to snack with intention.

Every Gift Starts with the Message

All GettaGift boxes come with a gold foil card you can personalise at checkout. You write the message, we handwrite it. Whether you want to say something funny, heartfelt, chaotic or classic, this is the part that people screenshot, stick on the fridge and talk about long after the snacks are gone. Because while the box brings the surprise, the message makes it stick.
