Gifts for teens/early 20’s

Always have a nightmare buying for nephews/nieces.
I keep looking at gift guides but they’re all suggesting gifts that I’ve either bought them all before or that seem wasteful /not needed.

These adult children all have good jobs/at uni and I have no idea what their interests are really. They’re not into gaming or anything specific that I could buy for them.
They don’t love chocolate or sweets and buying nice scarf or gloves/socks/shower sets just seems boring as I do that most years.

If it was up to me, I’d probably stop buying now they’re all 18+ (that’s what my own aunties and uncles did for us) but nobody has mentioned not buying for them.

Any ideas? £20 per person is the usual budget.

Costa or Starbucks card

I would probably stop buying, particularly once they have started working, otherwise, I agree with a voucher or a decent bottle of wine each.

It is up to you. Just stop if you want.

if it was me I’d probably carry on for the students. £20 in a card or a voucher for Just Eat?

Thanks - think I’ll go with vouchers then.
Maybe clothes shops like H&M and Just Eats etc
