Last minute present 18 year old boy

Help! I bought my 18 year old godson something from his wish list and just found out his mum bought it too! I thankfully managed to return it. But now I have to think of something else. I sadly have lost touch with what he likes (it was so much easier when he was little). He had a birthday recently and I got him a sports shop voucher so I can’t get the same again. Any ideas?

You absolutely can get the same thing again!!

Or cash. Best thing I was ever given when I was 18.

Most 18 yo are happy with cash. If you stick the envelope to a bar if his favourite chocolate he'll probably be doubly happy Wink

Money. Teenagers far prefer that so they can choose what they want and it's easier for you so that's what I'd do. When I was a teenager I far preferred cash!
