Could anyone suggest a good present for a 16 year old boy please? Budget around £20.

Without meaning to be rude isn't this a bit like asking for suggestions for a 40yr old woman? Or a 27yr old man?? Isn't the first thought, What are they interested in?! I know three 16yr old boys, one is into Warcraft, crystals and reading, one is into football and cricket (& sports generally) the other is a game fanatic... You can't just lump all 16yr is boys in together! Grin

What is he into? If you don't know at all I would go generically boring and get an Amazon token!

Yes I know what you mean! I saw a Christmas thread come up in Active yesterday and just posted my question on a whim as I know the posters on here always have really helpful ideas, but I do understand what you mean about them all being different so can't lump together.
This boy is someone I used to childmind and I like to drop round with a gift on his birthday and at Christmas - from what I always gather he is into gaming and football but know he already has the computer games he wants from his parents so was hoping for some inspiration for something a bit different he might like and enjoy using.

Most 16yo boys like chocolate. The ‘grand’ slabs from Hotel Chocolat could be a good idea www.hotelchocolat.com/uk/rocky-road.html#start=7

Look at the teenagers section of Not on the High Street. Lots of original ideas.

My DS for a set of playboy boxers from his uncle at age 16. He loved them! Maybe something only an uncle could buy but I thought they were cool. Cuff links for his first shirt, mini fridge ( you will be his fave forever, mine asked for one and never got one) cool bed spread
