Which is best, the original Crimpit or the Wrap?
List here has got as far as
Money
Fave walking socks
Uber eats voucher?
Bday and xmas, absolutely stuck! Pretty sure I buy airpod cleaners regularly with no use

This thread has been great business for Crimpet! I don't even have teenage boys just a toddler but I still stumbled in here and I'm leaving with 2 Crimpets!

another one that has never heard of crimpet but will be checking out as soon as i can stretch far enough to reach bag from bed...

Nike.com has 25% off. I've ordered my DS a nike tech tracksuit

Still to get
Desk
Lights
Alexa

My DS is 18.

So far he has:
Birkenstock Bostons
An Anker battery pack charger
A Penghalions mini aftershave set
An urban outfitters sweatshirt

Stocking
Hockey socks
Sports socks
Nice shower gel and deodorant
Hair salt spray

What are nice shower gel and deodorant brands for the young man about town these days? I’ve got mine some fancy Harry’s razors but looking for more ideas.

Also any suggestions for slightly acne-y/sensitive skin products that are stocking suitable?

Another one who has ordered two Crimpits - that website will wonder what has increased their sales in the last 24 hours! 😁

@FelicityGraceSpoon thank you for the link and screen shot 😊

Which shape Crimpir are you all getting?

Love these ideas. I just have chocolate money for mine so far... M&S always good for fun food ideas. Also will do Calvin Klein pants, and possibly the Guinness Book of Records.

@MegBusset I'm currently researching gaming chairs for DS- which one have you gone for?

Have just started buying all the usual sweets and chocs for stockings but a new thing this year is hair powder.

@GrangeFill I'd probably go with Molton Brown Black Pepper for the shower gel. Try Cerave blemish control face wash maybe? Or the hydrating one. Bottles are quite nice so it doesn't look too 'medicinal' if that makes sense

This is where I reveal that I actually work for Crimpit!!!

PS I don't I don't even buy the Warburton 'Thins' very often but I believe you can use normal bread with the crusts cut off.

I've added to my purchases! Well, I've ordered some more bits. Mine also has a birthday in December which is just a double expense really

I've added ...

A Darkrai plush (some Pokémon thing, he's having another Pokémon moment)

Name That Bumhole game (just don't ask)

Light up football

Pokémon Platinum game

@wlv12 Last Christmas we managed to get my son tickets to see Polyphia in Manchester. Its about 3 hours away from us but was the only venue they played that was even nearly do-able. He didn't think for a second he could have gone, but we got him the tickets for the gig, booked a nice hotels, and he's always wanted to go to the Leeds armouries museum as well so we booked tickets for that and also later an escape room for the day after the gig. Made a proper fun weekend for him and his Dad. I printed all the tickets and itinerary and made a little flip book to wrap. He was over the moon and they had an amazing weekend away together. I feel like this Christmas will be disappointing when he opens socks and lynx, but there's literally nothing he's asked for! 🤣

For DS so far:

Bluetooth speaker
CK and Ted Baker trunks
Clothing (Urban Outfitters and Napapijri)
Clock made from bike parts
Worldwide travel adaptor

Stocking bits include face wash, chocolate, trainer balls, socks .....I really need to get some more bits but just haven't had chance to go shopping

Can anyone suggest a fidget toy to go in his stocking as they've always been popular in the past.

Mine are 19 and 17 so some great ideas thanks.

So far I have a very random collection of:
Shoe rescue powder (a godsend for de-stinking sports shoes)
Grip it socks
Carbon monoxide alarm, meat thermometer and knife sharpener (older son in rented accommodation)
Electric candle lighter and woodwick candle (younger son loves them)
Water bottles and protein shake bottle
Bath muscle salts soak
Hard case for school tablet computer
Various clothes they've chosen and I've saved

Just added trainer wipes and AirPods cleaner as suggested on here

It's getting very hard to buy for them, long gone are the days when they were thrilled by toys, sadly.

I may have just ordered the Crimpits too! I went for the wrap one as I think it would get more use with my DS.

I saw Crimpits mentioned on another thread and honestly thought they were a hair styling thing for retro 80s hairs 🤣

@NormalForNuneaton get this .... Handheld Fidget Roller Spelitsow Fidget Toy for Men Women Relieve Stress Anxiety Tension Portable Roller for Adults amzn.eu/d/76NfuvO

Doesn't look much (and it is a rip off of the £37 ONO one) but it's really addictive to use and very comfortable. Once you pick it up it's hard to put down! So much so, I got another and my husband has it on his desk at work

Is there a crimpit that suits a rolled wrap? DS folds bottom up then sides around. Mainly to take to college, he doesn't heat them.

Amazon have the Xbox series x for 404 quid today which is the cheapest I've seen. It's still err about 200 quid more than I'd like to pay 😀 but thinking of biting the bullet and going for it.

Wish they'd do a deeper discount. Which of course will happen as soon as I decide to buy it

DS 19
Phone as main present

From us/family/ stocking:

Cool playing cards
Lava lamp
