DS is hard to buy for! He’s a student in halls. He likes bouldering, callisthenics and lego, though got lots of lego for his recent birthday so asked to not get more! He has little space for callisthenics gear, and has what he needs for bouldering. Beyond clothes, I’m clueless!
I offered money but he said he’d rather have gifts as he has enough money! He has no suggestions either…

Does he like cooking? What about a monthly subscription to one of those curry clubs??

A themed hamper - either cinema vouchers with popcorn 🍿 and sweets or Netflix vouchers

A toiletries hamper with nice showergels and stuff

A gift experience like tickets to a concert or show or a sporting event

New Bedding and towels - not dead exciting but something to open

Nice toiletries
Nice food/ snacks
Nice pens/ highlighters/ notebooks for studying. (Assuming it isn’t all done on his laptop!)
Kindle
New earphones or headphones maybe?

Has he explored the area beyond the halls? Maybe you could get him out and about. Research what’s to do in his area. Tickets to watch a comedian, play or to go a luxury cinema or concert, maybe go karting, indoor ski place, immersive experience (escape room), or gift card to for local restaurants etc… Obviously you’d need to buy 2 tickets so he can take a friend.
