My dad means love to me. He gave me an unique name so that I can always be special. He allowed me to do everything boys would do and still support any decision I make.
He is not tech savvy or modern so he would probably like the get sauced prize.
My Dad is an amazing strong, kind man. He has taught me my values and morals, and how to stand up for myself. I love him more than any man in this world.
My husband is such a hands on dad and with 3 kids he needs to be lol. He’s amazing and I’d love to win anything from Mevrou & Co, La Boutique Eyewear, or Kathy and Muller.
My husband means a lot to me , he is my world my everything & a good working hard fathe, husband,a son & a brother. He work as a security guard & always at work, this Frankees Underwear will be perfect for him , to show our appreciation, He really deserved comfortable underwear as he work hard & always standing. Please choose him to win this prize for Father’s Day gift.
I would love to win the Frankees underwear and a Kathy and Muller hamper. They all actually awesome products. My husband is truly a fantastic father. Not only to our son. But to his nephews a great uncle and to his God children an amazing God Father. He will sacrifice himself and selflessly do for them any day any time. When Kai was small he bathed him everyday for 2 years. Cos I was too scared to hold such a small baby. He worked so I could be the homemaker. He makes sure Kai feels confident and loved dearly. He is always at home with his family , nothing makes him happier.
My Dad is my rock. Even though I’m married with 3 children, he still looks out for me and takes care of me, like he did before I got married. He’s always ready to offer advice and lend a helping hand, despite him being 63 years old.
My partner and I have been together for 11 and half years. We happen to share the same birthday on June 11 so let’s hope we get a surprise after this giveaway! He is the most hands on dad to our 8 year old daughter and is the best dad according to her as he spoils her whether it be with time or small little priceless gifts. Fashion is his name so Frankees and Mevrou and Co would be the best item for him as that is what he loves. Family always comes first and and he will do anything to ensure they are happy and looked after. Let’s hope we can win something to spoil him this Father’s Day!
Not only do I have the best Dad to myself and my sister I have the best Husband who is the best Dad to my James and Annebelle
With a loving and forgiving heart,a person who goes the extra mile to make his babies happy.
A person who really deserves being called a DAD
I would love to win each of them a pair of Frankees
And if not that anything else
Dxx
My husband become a dad in 2013 for the first time. He is my partner in crime, the milk to my shake, the Lilly to my jolly. Love to be sharing the adventure of life with him and our two boys. The Frankees would be awesome to win, hubby loves a good pair of underwear.
My husband means a lot to us because he sacrifice’s a lot, even though he lost he’s job he still finds ways to support us,I would love to spoil him with Frankees under wear.
Kinda difficult to choose between my dad and my hubby! LOL….I am deffo a daddy’a girl and when they say one tends to marry a guy like your dad….well…box ticked!
My dad has so many qualities that I strive towards : he worked so hard to get to the top after starting at rock bottom ans always had a minute to spare for us….he is always always there with wise advice though in his quiet way guides us in a subtle,loving manner.
Hubby….a total rock through anytime…just like my dad….Honesty, loyalty, trusting and no-nonsense …..he is the backbone of our family…and he is an absolute marshmellow when it comes to our little girl! He is the perfect daddy for her and he loves her unconditionally with all her challenges and mischievous giggles <3
Both these men are encouraging and engaging, caring and wise…I love them sooooooooooo!!
My darling husband means everything to me because he loves me unconditionally and shows me in a million different ways. He is so selfless as he always puts my needs before his own needs. He says that making me and our kids happy, makes him the happiest man in the World! I would Love to Win him a pair of Stunning, Exclusive, Unique, Stylish Eyewear from La Boutique Eye Wear! Thank You For This FABULOUS COMPETITION! You are Truly an Inspiration!
I think my Dad simply the best because he is always putting others needs before his own and deserves to be spoilt and treated for once. I would love to win the Kathy and Muller giftpack for him as it is very personal and something he would appreciate 🙂
My dad is the best. i know we all say that..but he’s strong and bold, dark and deep, he can be sweet tho mostly he has a black sense of humor..definitely single origin, expresso type, while many find him intense..when it comes to solid advice, he’s still the only one we turn too! Not just his kids but his friends, family and in laws too!
I would love to win these prizes for my partner who is an amazing father. He would rather spend every waking second with the kids than anything else in this world. He deserves the pampering for a chance! Yes please! Xo

Yes please! Xo
My Dad was the perfect Dad, he lived for his kids and was always supportive what we did!! He was always there for us- His family came first. My Dad passed away in a freak accident in 2006. I started to date my husband, Richard, in 2004. So I feel so blessed that he knew my Dad. Richard has the same qualities than what my Dad had when it comes to family- Family comes first!! From the moment he heard I am pregnant he went into Daddy mode, the first cry of Hunter I got tears in my eyes when I saw the look on his face- pure love for our gorgeous boy!! He is there every step of the way for our boy, be it learning to climb our staircase to riding his scooter or just a giggle, he is always there. The best Daddy for our little Hunter
Thanks to my dear dad that I am a successful , independent , confidant person . He instilled in me good values , morals, the importance of education and being charitable.His wise words echo and are etched in my heart as I travel life’s journey and also knowing that I am not alone and I have my dad beside me through life’s happiness and sorrows, the good and the bad ….blessed with a amazing dad. ❤❤❤❤
Kathy and Muller hamper.
What an awesome hamper of gifts. As a hospital dad my hubby definitely deserves this! Since baby was born we’ve been in an out of hospital so we’re pretty pro at it now. A new hospital though always throws off what you know so at our last hospital visit the wifi and signal was terrible! It made updating family terrible and we had a super tough night after the operation. I slept over and was super grumpy in the morning, hubby rocked up with COFFEE and our WIFI router!!! This man knows the way to my heart! He has been working from home, paying medical bills, holding everything together and he deserves the biggest thank you and treat ever! And I know my super stylish man would adore some sunglasses and frankees undies! *holding thumbs*
My husband is a wonderful and caring person. He is always there for myself, our children and grandchildren. He would be over the moon to win somehing like the gourmet artisan sauces and condiments
Oh my another competition and this time for my hubby! My husband means the world to me and now that he has become a new Dad I didn’t realize I could love him more!! He has been hands on from the time we found out I was pregnant and nothing stopped when our precious boy was born. He is there for midnight feeds and nappy changes even though he has to work the next day. I couldn’t have asked for a better husband and Daddy #iloveyoujasondekoning
I would love to win and gift my husband with the Frankee’s outerwear and Good Threads bamboo socks.
My husband cooks for us every night after a 12-13 hour work day. He is our Personal Chef, our Bob the Builder, Handy Manny & we are so lucky he is ours! He is such a foodie and I would love to win the Get Sauced hamper although all the others are amazing too!
Thank you Nelia, have you registered for the blog newsletter? Good luck
I would love the La Boutique Eye wear for my husband he is the most amazing father ever, having gone through years of pain and suffering due to an accident, yet still worked 2 jobs at a time, working 7 days a week to help our daughter get through school and University, he never gives up and is a shining light in our lives

My husband and I have been together for 18 years; married for 14 this month! We have 3 beautiful children, have had our ups and downs but I wouldn’t want to do this parenting thing with anyone but him!

Think a personalised gift box or item would be really nice. On todays giveaway the biltong snack and apron would be something he would love.

My father, is honestly the kindest, most generous and most selfless man I know. He’s an architect, but he’s also very involved in our church. He works in Stellenbosch, and our home is in Bellville, so he wakes up at 6AM every morning to drop all of us at school and university and then drives through the traffic to get to work before 9AM and he’s late most mornings, but doesn’t complain one bit. I am at UCT now and the fees are unnecessarily high so my father does as much private architectural work as possible to help pay for my university fees. He sits up till way past midnight working on private work just so that he can pay my fees and provide for us. On top of this, no favour or want of ours is too big and he always tries to please us and puts his family before himself. He is EXCEPTIONALLY EXTRAORDINARY and this is why he is the best father. I would like to win either the Kathy and Muller prize or the La Boutique Eyewear prize.
Thank you Michael. Your Dad sounds amazing! Have you registered for the newsletter on my blog? Good luck
My hubby is the best dad ever so loving, caring, kind and compassionate always putting others needs before her own. He is always there to lend a helping hand whenever needed. l could not ask for a better hubby, married for 32 years and still enjoying life together. l would love to win Kathy and Muller giftpack for him which he would love but any other prize would do.
My dad is our super hero, he is the best dad anyone can ask for and an even beter grandpa. He always puts his kids and grandkids first. There is not enough words to describe what an amazing man he is. I love him to the moon and back.
Thank you for your reply Leandra, have you registered for the blog newsletter? Good luck
My hubby is my rock, my best friend, and the best father to our daughter. I would love to win some sexy undies for him

I would love to win the sunglasses for my husband and father of our 2 precious girls. Not only is he a hands in dad, he always makes sure he’s girls comes first and only gives them the best of everything. He is such a modern day dad and husband, we share the household responsibilities as well as chores where our girls are concerned which is very rare nowadays.
Thank you for your reply Bronwyn, have you registered for the blog news letter? Good luck x
My dad’s passed on a few years ago, but I still feel his absence very keenly. My son was born after the demise of my dad, but I try to raise him with the same values that my dad raised me.

My husband means the world to me. He’s the best husband and definitely the model father. He is also my best friend and my pillar of strength. We have been through so much together.
Sometimes I feel that I just can’t cope because of medical challenges in our family but then he gives me the strength somehow and I manage. He’s amazing. I know he would love a decent pair of sunglasses for sure. Hope to be a winner
Thank you for your reply Annette. Have you registered for the blog newsletter? Good luck x
As a young newly married couple,myself and my partner were expecting our first baby together to be born in August,unfortunately the journey was cut short as we lost the baby in April to anencephaly. At heart he is still a dad and we will still be celebrating fathers day and i would like to surprise him with something special. It hasn’t been a easy journey but he has been so amazing and your posts with baby Hudson gives me so much hope to look forward to starting a healthy family again ❤❤❤❤
Thank yo Lynique, have you registered for the newsletter on my blog? Good luck x
My dad is such an important figure in our life, the impact he has made with his sacrifice, his open mindedness, his views on education has enriched our lives greatly. My dad is a stern Muslim man from very humble beginnings who at a young age of 22 married a young Hindu girl who just lost her dad..he raised her 4 young siblings along with his own kids. He has educated, fed and clothed us while trawling on fishing boats, he taught us that education is imperative and his girls to be self sufficient. He’s truly magnificent ♥
I would love to win something for him.
Pura or Frankees or Minime..anything!
How i would love to win this for my husband. It is his first fathers day and he us the most amazing dad to our 4 month old.
Thank you Darlene, have you registered for the news letter on my blog? Good luck x

I think this is a wonderful giveaway for “DAD’S”. I think my dad would love these, he is hard working person, like most dad’s, but to me my dad works 19hours straight some days from 2am to 9pm. He is also on the roads alot for work in other areas.
I’m thankful that my parents can give me the opportunity to obtain my Bachelor’s in Education…
Thank you for your message and also registering for the newsletter. Good luck x
Thank you very much. I love your blog. Would be fabulous to win this amazing hamper GIVEAWAY #6 for my DAD. Have a nice evening further.
I like GIVEAWAY 6, but GIVEAWAY 2 is also my favourite. Any of those would be lovely to win for my DAD. So many awesome GIVEAWAYs…
Wouldn’t be half sane if it wasn’t for my husband e.g. tag team partner! His live would be enriched with a Pura stainless steel water bottle. Classy, environmentally savvy and absolutely key to keeping easily hydrated .
Great! Thank you for the comment Rentia. Have you also subscribed to the newsletter? Good luck x
3/4 of our nation is growing up Fatherless and great fathers are often hard to find. I’m blessed with an incredible dad and lucky to have a husband that fathers like a boss!My own dad recently moved away to another province while we have stayed behind and for the first time in my life my dad is not close by to call to help fix something, to come over for tea or to randomly visit. I would love to win with any of the brands but specifically get sauced for my dad. Then for my gorgeous husband that sacrifices so much for me and our daughter I would love to win the eyewear giveaway.
It melts my heart when I look at my husband and the way he is living his dream…being a father. I appreciate him more and more every day. I would like to win any of the awesome prizes for him as he deserved to be spoiled.
