Hope to start Christmas shopping at half term as little free time after that due to work commitments. I buy for friend's 12 year old son who really does have almost everything you (or at least I) can think of. Prefer not to give money/vouchers - but is my fall-back plan; have asked his Mum who says it would be nice to have a surprise, but he doesn't need clothes. I've had a quick look at his games shelf, seems to have most things I would have bought. Sports kit gets bought as he needs it; parents spend a ton on him at Christmas; has sensitive skin & various allergies so have to be careful with toiletries/edibles etc etc. Budget c. £15. Have done Oxfam unwrapped in the past, on basis that he doesn't need anything but others do. (don't think it went down too well). Have previously bought rucksacks,boot bags, personalised pens/pencil cases, puzzles, science kits etc Any thoughts for something a bit different (with apologies in advance if I say "already done" or "know he's got" for most things.)
