Tight on money? Forget to send a dad or grandad who lives across the country a card or gift? Here's two free options that can make it look like you didn't forget!
Send Pops a free video e-card via tokbox.com instead. He'll be blown away with this. All he has to do is open his email and watch your e-card. All you have to do is gather up the kids for a nice Father's Day greeting with everyone in front of your webcam, go to tokbox.com, sign up for free, hit record, then send it via email to your dad. Of course, if you don't have a webcam, this won't work. But mom doesn't have to have one to get your message!
Don't dispair if you don't have a webcam, you can still send dad a free e-card and support charity while you're at it by sending him one of the cool e-greetings from Care2.com (like the card to the right).
