14 year old boy?

I really stuck on what to get my cousin 14year old son. He’s just getting a bit too old for toys and some gadget gifts.
I had thought about getting him smellies but I’m not sure what a 14 year old boy likes! Normally spend between £10 to £20 any ideas?

horrible age for boys unless you know them really well or they have a hobby/interest you can buy for. Some boys are really into branded smellies/clothes but others haven't reached that stage yet.
If they are gamers then console credit is always appreciated -though you may as well give them cash which is equally well appreciated

When my nephews were in their teens we usually did a token gift and some cash so they could get something they really wanted after xmas

I’ve done that for his cousin at the same age. Might have to go down the route.

He’s fairly into how he looks, but a lot of the brands are either too old or too young. Girls are so much easier!

Will have to find out what console he has. Unfortunately he’s into designer brands!

I would go with an Amazon gift card, safe bet and he can get what he wants.

My DS is 14 he is into gaming so my sister always gets him the Live membership (usually around black Friday when it is cheaper) without knowing or asking his family though as you say he could have a different device.

Superdry have an Ebay shop - have bought my teenagers bits from it in the past. DS2 is 15 next week and he is really hard to buy for!
