re: What to get 2 teens

Okay ladies...I need some help



I have two assistants at work...one is 13 and the other is 14......they don't get paid for helping me so I thought it would be cool to get them both x-mas gifts. But I don't know what to get them. I don't want to do a gift card because their parents pay for everything so getting them a g/c is kind of pointless.

Any ideas???? They are both very mature and act more like they are 18 than their real ages.

are they both girls?

Maybe a gift card for a manicure or something like that?? so it's not actually a gift card like to a store where their parents would just buy them something anyway?

I always find that teens that age love MAC makeup. They have really cute giftsets at MAC.

I agree with the scarf idea.... most girls that age love American Eagle and they always have tons of cute scarves and hats.

I agree MAC is a great idea or if you don't want to spend that much maybe you can go to Sephora and get them like a spa gift set with lotion, showergel, and bubble bath. Philosophy makes really good Christmas smelling ones!

This just gave me an idea......What about an Itunes gift card? Do you think they would like it? I know I said no gift cards but I think itunes is a little different b/c they could DL their own music, that we use in class, maybe.

What are your limits for money? Vera bradley has some really nice like keychain purse things and they come in handy for metro cards, etc.

They also have really nice wallets around 25 dollars.

I got a 15 year old from Kearney one last year for helping with my class.

that could definitely work...they could pick their favorite songs from each artist without having to buy the entire album.
