Budget around £15 to £25 but can stretch if needed for something good.

Maybe a voucher for somewhere but no idea what this age group tends to like?!?

Agree that cash is the best gift, when my DS was a similar age he was frequently given vouchers by generous family/friends but they were never quite 'right', we didn't have easy access to certain shops so it might mean an expensive trip out just to 'spend' the voucher.

I used to frequently have to 'buy' the voucher from him and use it to get something totally random just to spend the voucher.

If you get a voucher, Amazon is the safest bet. A band t shirt is good if you know what he is into. My DS wears his onesie (next) and dressing gown a lot so I agree fleece stuff is a good idea.

Interested in this thread?

DS loves a greggs voucher. Costa and Starbucks are too expensive apparently. Vouchers for his console, local cinema or local bowling would also go down well, as does a book token still. If you wanted to buy something, American sweets are popular (can get boxes online). But cold hard cash is King.

Wireless stereo earphones, you can get them on Amazon for the price you're looking at, they went down with my 13yr old DS.

No presents, honestly cash is best, vouchers second

Thanks all I went for a voucher related to a hobby in the end.
