View Full Version : What do you want for Father's Day?

Hi guys,

I was browsing through the Father's Day Harvey Norman catalogue and saw some
cool "Father's Day presents".

I'm hoping to get the $7000 plasma TV for the family room and the $3000 home
cinema package for the lounge. I also expect to be given the $2600 wine storage
cabinet and $4200 BBQ. I'll also take one of the $2000 digital cameras and the
$3000 massaging electric recliner.

But seriously, who gets thousands of dollars spent on them for Father's Day?

Out of all the things in the catalog, I think I'll probably be more likely to be
given the Conair plush lined battery operated with massagin option for $28.

The $400 bar fridge (60 can capacity) in the shape of an enormous beer can is
pretty cool.

I though that 'Go Harvey Go Harvey Go!!!' campaign was the start of a
push in a certain direction....

Still laugh when I recall Mick Molloy doing a routine on that one
years ago. The stuff of legend.

The bottle itself will do.
