Present for my 18 year old nephew.....

[lucyloo]

and what do we buy him?????

I was thinking along the lines of something to keep....a mug or a flask....but bloody hell, they work our expensive, and add on the engraving, and we have a $100 gift

I don't want to encourage the alcohol thing, he drinks enough as it is.....something for the car was mentioned....an Itunes voucher.....

Any good ideas????????

i would go with after shave...

If you want to get a keepsake (which is a good idea for an 18th) can you go halves in the gift with another family member?

Normally that would be a fine idea Naomi, but probably not this time

I like the idea of a keepsake as well, and I think that is why i am having so much trouble.....

Hmmmm its a tricky one without really knowing him. What footy team does he support? is he into cars? If he's about to get his lisence by him something for the car, like a Melways or car seat covers, get a sticker made at a local market for his back wind screen. something like that

Does he go fishing Luce? A new fishing rod never goes astray..

This hard. If you can provide more details it will be very helpful. But in general for 18 year olds. I would get them a nice jacket, or a good pen. Hope this helps a little

Hard one Lucy, i don't like alcohol as a gift, these days boys are hard to buy for at 18 but like the girls have said, maybe something for his car if he has one,you can get gift vouchers for those fast car rides but i think they are exy as well, did you ask his mum if she knows of anything you can get him?

Maybe a gift voucher from say.. Sanity or one of those game stores that's what I did when my DS turned 18...
