ok, besides things remembered....
any other stores here in town that sell "guy gifts"?

I know no one on here knows my groomsmen, but just looking for something other than (a flask, a beer mug, a money clip....etc).
I know that I personally have been in several weddings and I have all of the above that I never use.

Just seeing if anyone has any ideas, or received anything unique from their experiences.

Forgo the gifts, pay for the tuxedo rentals.

Any department store has a men section. From JCPenny to Nordstrom.
I am not sure what you are looking for and don't know your budget. I usually look online. One of my fav is www.onthefly.com

Well then, be sure and make them use one of those places that gives you the rental for free. Tell them they can't go elsewhere because "the tuxes have to match" and then be mad when the tuxes don't match anyway.

What about gift certificates to restaurants or things they like? Like if someone loves to go shooting at a range, why not get them a gift certificate for it? Just an idea...

After a wedding even groomsmen need a bit of winding down.

I know it sounds dumb but I got a really nice shaving kit bag in a wedding I was in once and I used it for over ten years until it fell apart.

I took it with me everywhere. It had my name on it. Just an idea for you.
