Impossible to buy for ds19

DS just wants “surprises” or “stuff he can use”.
Money is no use, he’s got a part time job and no outgoings, plus more than 10x the savings I’ve ever had 😂

He wears clothes but isn’t into them- me and Dd17 normally choose for him.

He’s waiting to start his first career type job soon. It has uniform so no clothes or equipment needed.

He has a gaming pc, Spotify and gym membership. No other interests really besides friends and walking the dog. He eats healthily so not into treat food. Doesn’t cook beyond grilled chicken/ boiled veg/ scrambled eggs.

i can’t not get him anything as he’d feel left out (3 siblings). Does anyone have any inspiration?

Would a hamper from muscle food or similar (if you have the space) work?
Big tub of protein powder?
A fancy brand of pre workout.
None feel very festive or gift like.

If he pays for Spotify, is he into music? Turntable and vinyl?
Or echoing the good quality headphones suggestion.

Keep an eye on qwertee.com - they sell t-shirts and have some good funny ones. I have a ds who is also difficult to get anything for (the only things he has asked for in the last couple of years have been have been entry fee to a maths contest and some fluffy slipper socks!) - he started in the sixth form this year so I've got him a set of assorted t-shirts from here that he has really enjoyed wearing depending on mood.

Keep an eye on them as they often have sales where they only charge about £7-8 instead of £13-£14 per t-shirt.
