Help! Present for 15yr old boy

I want to spend about £25

His mother unhelpfully says 'anything' is fine. He has no ideas this year. What do I get? Confused

He's got some interests in music though I wouldn't be able to pick anything for him as his taste is teenage obscure. Picking clothes would also make me anxious too. Mostly likes spending time with his friends and finds it rather hard to say what else he enjoys doing! I've bought books in the past and might manage this again but would prefer a better idea. Last year was money as he was saving up for an iPod.

His parents are quite wealthy and he always has lots and lots of presents which adds to my difficulty in finding something he doesn't already have.

I'm really struggling to come up with any ideas.

Any suggestions please!

iTunes card?

I would go for iTunes card or an Amazon voucher, that's what my teens would most appreciate. As their Mum I have to be very very careful with clothes or other stuff as I have " no taste".

I agree with dropdead and mummytime

Cinema vouchers?
Tickets for something he likes - theatre / football / other event ?
Voucher for paintballing / ice-skating / bowling / whatever he likes to go to with friends ?
