sorry if this is in the wrong place
im going to a joint 18th bday party at the end of june of 2 boys from school so i need to get them a pressie but i have no idea what to get, so i was hoping you would all be able to give me some ideas. seeing as theres 2 of them and im rather skint, i can probably only spend about £5 on each of them, but i have no clue at all so any help would be appreciated, especially from the males on the boards!
thanks :)
hmv vouchers - for music/dvds/games - is usually the best option for boys

thanks, thats a good idea, and its different to just putting money in the card (which is what i wanted to do til my mum said i couldnt lol!)

Hmm as it's their 18th I'd just say a pack of beer each.
[But as I know one of them is Kyal - I'd just say a kiss would do just perfectly for him :p]

the thing is us lads want expesnive things like trainers and designer brand name clothes and technolgy and stuff
the cheapest things we want are dvds and cds and games, which are still expensive for a present, so if they get some vouchers they can add that along with their birthday money to get some of the smaller things they need

Lmao oh come on, a kiss is worth like 100 pressies... well to Kyal anyway :p
Ah right... aftershave? Might sound like you're saying they smell - but they'll probably appreciate it. :p
I'd go down the off licence and see what offers are on.

Kissing those boys as part of their birthday presents, I think.
What i've done for some of my male mates is this..
Theres a website you can go onto, where you can personalise labels for Jack Daniels bottles. You can add things like "Happy 18th Birthday" to them, and basically say what you want on it. Buy a couple of those, and a couple of bottles of Jack Daniels, and stick them on. Then give them over, point out the personalised label, and it looks like you've put thought and effort into it. Bingo- you're in the good books!
I'll try and find the address for the site if you want, and PM it to you. Just shouts, and i'll have a look.

Lmfao well just say you were drunk... you had a few before the party :p Lmfao I'm not... just trying to get you two together :p
I just PMed you a whole bunch of different websites, where you can get decent presents for Guys, not costing too much. Everything from cards, to labels, to Alcohol, to Mousemats... loads of stuff. Hope that helps a bit :)

i personally find Vouchers are annoying its like "I couldnt give a toss here you go you buy it"

Also, they'd know exactly how much you'd spent on them, but if you bought the booze or whatever yourself, if they were sad enough to go looking for it in a shop, they'd only know the relative price.
