Teenage boy gifts £20

[mmgirish]

Hi there,

My nearly 14 year son has been asked for gift suggestions for him around the £20 mark. He likes books but reads on his kindle so doesn’t need those. He likes gaming but seems to have all the ps5 games he wants. He isn’t into fashion but will wear clothes bought to him - he doesn’t know what to ask for. He has a phone, laptop, watch, headphones etc already. Any suggestions? I’m under a bit of pressure to send links to family members for him and he has zero ideas.
Thanks!

Voucher for cinema/escape room/Costa/Nando’s or similar
Waffle maker
Nike sport socks
Nice belt
Cross-body bag for wallet/phone
LED strip lights
Lava lamp
Poster for bedroom
S’mores kit
Snack box/sweet hamper

Coffee table style book on something he’s interested in

You can get some really nice aftershave dupes from Zara around the £20 mark

My son is 12 and sounds similar, what about gift card for PlayStation. It can be added to account and used when ever if he got a few he could save them for a later if a games out or has an add on he fancies. I know some people don't like gift cards as they feel like a cop out but my son loves them. JD sports also do cool t shirts and things so again a voucher or have a browse and send some links to things he might like. My son also likes lynx sprays and products they do gift sets etc........ again they last thoughout year. New phone cover maybe. My son has asked for sliders to wear like slippers in the house. Hope this helps

Wow! Great ideas. Thank you so much. I’ll go through these lists with him after work.

Good gaming mouse
Steam gift card?
LED lights
Glowing stickers
Does he have any favorite teams or artists? You can get him something from their official stores
If he's into tech, and you're willing to go above the budget could be subscription(s) to useful software like a video editing program or a photo editor, etc. Maybe certificates to online or offline classes like guitar or singing lessons if he's into that.
A big box of his favorite snacks
If he's into gym, then maybe protein powder or a good shaker.
