Father's Day spending is expected to reach near-record levels this year, according to the National Retail Federation, but, what does dad actually want?
All dads really want is some "me time," according to a Groupon survey.
Groupon surveyed 700 fathers and the results show dads want on average 11 hours of alone time per week, which is equal to about 24 days a year.
What are they going to use that "me time" for?
The survey lists seeing a movie, watching sports, playing golf, eating a steak or going to a concert.
The survey also found that 60-percent of the dads surveyed have a "man cave" where they can relax.
But if you're like most Americans, you're determined to find that special gift for your dad.
