Help me with DS(20)

[julietrosalind]

What are other people buying for their young adult sons? I am struggling so much ...

Me too! Have decided to do a stocking so the usual pants, socks, smellies, sweets, booze etc, after that im struggling so any ideas welcome!

Does he have a hobby?
What things does he like?

My DS will be 19 in December so a little bit younger.

I've asked him tonight for a list . There's no point me trying to guess. (I know what 16yo DD likes or she'll 'helpfully' point things out )
DS doesn;t like shopping, not interested in brands (which is nice )

I've bought him a couple of sweatshirts from H&M (to wear now) so if he likes them, I might buy more.

In his stocking he'll get:
Money (he always gets a £50 note)
Underwear (H&M and maybe a brand if I can find some nice ones that will fit him)
Showergel/smellies
Sweets
Viz annual

He plays the guitar , we pay his lessons . He's thinking about buying another guitar .(So we might buy him one or give him money towards it)

Maybe a voucher for the trendy mens' barber.
He's got a new beard trimmer and electric toothbrush .

He doesn't want a new wallet , he has an iPhone 7 that he's happy with.
He rarely drinks alcohol and never coffee .

I think he'll get money+vouchers unless he thinks of anything (little bugger will get a lump of coal at this rate )

We are buying our DS (who will be 19 next month) a dinner suit, as he will need one for balls at university. A second hand one mind! Other than that, foodie treats in stocking to take back to uni, stationary, toiletries, sweets and beer. No other ideas really...

19 year old DGS gets a stocking containing all the usual toiletries/hair clay/shaving gear/scratchcard/alcohol miniature etc. This year he is having a hamper containing various gift cards/red letter day experiences.[Cineworld gift box, Nandos and Costa gift cards, 3 course meal for 2 with wine at Prezzo got from Red letter days for £15]. Hate giving actual money at Christmas so this is a good alternative and will be well received.
Presents under the tree will be magnetic windsceen cover for the frosty nights to save him having to defrost the car in the mornings and a couple of shirts probably.

i Have a 20 year old and I have got him lots from boohoo.com.
He likes their muscle t shirts and gym wear. Very reasonably priced and lots in their sale at the moment. I have also got him a couple of leather belts for work and some fingerless gloves.

They also have some nice wallets and wallet chains(mine didn’t need a new wallet and doesn’t use wallet chains but they seem quite popular amongst his age group.

Ive brought my ds (20 in 2 weeks 😢) the Lego Hogwarts express. He used to love Thomas and then Harry Potter as he got older and has a recent love for Lego (wish he’d liked it when he was little!! Would have made so many Christmas’s and birthdays easier!)
I’ve also picked up a few Lego block heads he seems to have brought him sled while at Uni besides the Lego I’ve got him a few T-shirt’s and will also get him some food and an amazon voucher
