I am having some trouble here. What would you buy a 17 year old girl for christmas? I got my cousin in my Mom's side of the family christmas draw.
Any ideas please :oops:

My aunts and uncles always favored getting me gift certificates to places like Barnes and Noble, or Borders or some such thing, and putting them in a picture frame, or the front of a scrapbook. I always thought it was a good idea! Hope this suggestion helps. :thumb:

Are you two close? If not I would suggest a gift certificate from a trendy store like American Eagle or La Senza. I get them for my teenage nieces and they love them.

I always loved getting gift certificates! Still do! :-D
suggestions for places:
Movie theater
restaurants
the local mall, I know the mall in back home has gift certificates for the entire mall
tickets to a concert
tickets to a sporting event
A CD is always good too!
You could also get her a visa gift card!

I've got a fourteen year old cousin whose really into Marylin Manson. I bought a 2 foot Teddy Bear, put some garters, leather gloves, a spiked collar, some white face paint and some red lip stick on it... done. That'll also work if your Grandma's into S&M.

Sorry, couldn't help myself. My wife shops there. Don't think there's any bad piece of lingerie in that store.

cratch: In the 10 years she's bought things from there I don't think I would even think that let alone say it. Guess I'm easily distracted
