lovebears65 Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 My boys are 18, 16( on tuesday) and 12. They have every video game out so far except the wii and ps3 . We have the wii on preorder for them all but I have no idea what else to get them. I dont want to just get them just video games. They have stereos , each have a computer ( their christmas gift last year) TV, DVD, They are not into clothes , just jeans and tshirts. I will get them a new pair of boots they like wearing those work style boots and usually get those from the outlet mall from Rockport. I will pay for their WOW subscribtion and get the expansion pack for them as well .. I am just thinking of gift cards , let them pick what they want out LOL ..
Firemansgal311 Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 How about a new watch, Netflix subscription, favorite mag subscription, GC to the local movie theater, remote control cars, basketball goal.....
lori12563 Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 i got my oldest son new comforter and pillows and sheets for xmas last year. Also new lamp and clock for his room. running out of ideas myself.
Kandy Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 I agree in need to be in the Holiday forum... Other Ideas like the wallet with the gas card, restaurant cards, movie rentals, video rental GC, that was mentioned in another thread. Theater tickets with concession cash. DVD of the lastest release they may like, music cd.s Minutes for a cell phone or a pre paid phone if they dont have one. (which most teens do) a new to them car...oh u didnt mention a budget.....
whitesocks Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 What about an Ipod or mp3 player and subscription to itunes or the such?
lovebears65 Posted October 21, 2006 Author Posted October 21, 2006 Ok they already have a cell phone, mp3 players ( two oldest one) They do need a personal CD player so I will probably get them that , probably get them gc to hot topic so they can get band tshirts they really like that stuff and cds..
laffnatu Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 GCs are probably your best bet. Once they reach a certain age, they are so hard to buy for.
shopping mom Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Do you have room for a together gift like air hocky, ping pong, or a pool table? My boys have also liked cologne and leather jackets (Kohls had great deals last year)
qbmomx2 Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 I am getting my husband and 2 boys (11 &13)a fishing trip for christmas - I have found a really great guy that takes people out on his boat and has all sorts of equipment for them to use and the thing that finds the really big fish - I don't know if your boys would like that, but what about tickets to a sporting event or concert - something that is maybe a couple of months away, but that they could look forward too
elena_398 Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Any computer items they don't have? Printer, etc. My son asked for that as hes 111 (soon to be 12) and has everything for his computer except a printer (his broke). Also, bedding or accessories for their rooms is always a safe bet iPod w/ iTunes GC (this is what my son is getting) Are they into sports? Anything to do with their favorite teams is good too. Wallets Cologne Tag/Axe body spray (I got this for my son for his stocking) Do they have cars (oldest?). Something for their car (seat covers, steering wheel covers, etc).
Adamtanderson Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Do you have room for a together gift like air hocky, ping pong, or a pool table?That is a good idea. Something they can do when friends come over
