Foo - Graduation Present/ birthday present ideas.

Ok so my brother is graduating highschool. And turns 18 the month before. Now my dad and i are taking him to a stripclub for his birthday. But like not sure what to get him for a present. He doesnt smoke or anything like that. He's into driving his truck, chasing ladies, snowboarding, surfing. Thought bout getting him a new backpack for college. Like a chrome bag. Or some type of messenger bag, and a few hats or a jacket.

I want to put a spending limit at 400$

Tools are not an option cause we basically have a full working garage.

What are some of your ideas?

a good watch, i.e. a "seiko samurai" available for 328$ from this extremely reliable (http://www.larrybiggs.net/scwf/index.php?mod=103&action=1&id=1100231319) seller in Japan. Chances are it will last longer than anything else you get him. I still have a Seiko given to me 25 years ago.

A fixie to get across campus.

yeah....but a fixie with gears.

My first thought: ditch the strip club idea. At an absolute minimum, having Dad along seems just a tad . . . creepy . . . to me.

Botto's watch idea sounds like a winner, though. Everytime he looks to see what time it is, he'll think of you.






Oh my God, I'm agreeing with Botto. :eek: Nooooooooooooooooooo . . . .

Save the money you are going to spend on the strip club and put it toghether with the 400 you are planning to spend on a gift ... get a bit more money toghether..and send him with a backpack to northern europe for a the summer as to an exchange family... lots to do and cheap places to for students.. he will have a great time !!! That is .. if he catches the girls once he chases them!!! Can think of Holland , Germany Denmark sweden or norway... They seem expensive but lots of free stuff to do in summer like concerts parties etc etc... (also excelent cycling facilities)

alright strip club idea is out. I told my mom a watch but my grandparents are buying him a citizen. He doesnt have a passport.

A camera. Specifically a nikon d40.
