My son is graduating in 2 weeks - I have no idea what to get him, and I know that there are quite a few posters here that are his age, what should I get him?  I told him I'd give him $1000.00 Can.  towards his truck, but he sold his truck.  I can give him the $1000.00 and he can spend it as he feels, or something else, any ideas?
Imagine there’s a picture of your favourite thing here.

Laptop is so cliche, if that's what you get him, make sure it's decent.

Or hookers and blow.

$1000 worth of KY and tube socks.

And yeah, the laptop is really cliche, but it's very nice at the same time. Especially if he's going to college or university, he'll appreciate. If you DO the laptop thing, make sure he has input on which one, cause it would suck to get a laptop he doesnt really want, but cant seem ungrateful, so he's stuck with it.

A CCW and a Glock 9, be a G.




:maybuhdodgy:






But really, make his graduation present something that he will really enjoy.  A laptop is a nice gift to get him before college, but I think the graduation present should be something to celebrate finishing the first 13 years of school, not just prepare for the next 4-8.

^^$1000.00 worth of Ramen could kill a man.

A trip somewhere is always nice. I agree with USAF; there is grad presents and then there is going away to college presents. I wasn't fortunate enough to get them at different times *shucks* but I think they really are two different entities. Laptops become obsolete every 2 years anyhow, so he'll probably end up selling it to get the newest model he can for his money.

If we could get more detail about his after grade school plans that would be more helpfull.
