ds is getting a ps5 with his brother but other than that he doesn't really have anything and I'm struggling with ideas as I refuse to buy for the sake of it/things he won't really use but he has way less to open than the others which seems unfair

he has
superdry hoodie, deodrant sprays & sports bottle
some of those multicoloured strip lights you put behind the TV (apparently they reduce eye strain)
chocolate hamper
Game for the PS5 - the only thing he's actually asked for

Have you got a extra controller because you only get one, we bought our son a extra one, but he’s 24 and bought himself the ps5 and we bought games and accessories.

M&S is also worth a look as their kids clothes go up to age 16
I went into next today so that I could get a good look at the dressing gowns. They are SOOOO soft ! I bought him a slate grey one and some slippers that were amazingly soft too lol

A gaming mouse
A new motherboard
A Rick & Morty hoodie
A “what if” book which takes ridiculous questions and gives scientific answers
Chocolate
Pjs, dressing gown and fluffy socks
But dd has loads more - she’s so much easier to buy for!
Thanks I ordered the what if book for ds (13). It looks great.

Oh glad to hear! I think my ds will be really into it! I mean we are the family who sit around the table and discuss the most ridiculous hypothetical questions so I’m sure it’ll be right up his street!

My DS has asked for money (he has been saving up to build a gaming PC). We’ve ordered the graphics card from his list, I’m just hoping it arrives this side of Christmas!

He has a few other bits to open as well (mainly clothes) but it doesn’t look much. I hadn’t realised how expensive these pc components are 🤦

I’ve also made up a toasting marshmallow kit and will put a money wallet inside the box. (Just read this back and it sounds strange LOL).

I like the dressing gown idea, might have to visit Next to check for fluffiness!

Yep, those PC bits are ridiculously expensive! And once he starts he’ll be constantly upgrading 🙈
I can highly recommend the Next fluffiness 😂

He hasn’t even built it yet and is talking about a 2nd monitor! He’s also started a Pinterest account to collect ideas for his gaming room (aka the dining room) layout 😂
