kroppinkris Posted May 23, 2010 #1 Share Posted May 23, 2010 We are going on a graduation cruise with several families and high school graduates. I'm trying to think of a fun idea for a gift for one of the guys on the trip. I'd like to spend about $25 or so. Any suggestions? Thanks.

grandmato4 Posted May 23, 2010 #2 Share Posted May 23, 2010 OBC sound like the best gift he could recieve to enjoy while on his cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady_cruiser Posted May 23, 2010 #3 Share Posted May 23, 2010 I agree, call the cruiseline and order OBCs (gift certificates, fun ship dollares, etc) for the graduates. They will love you for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted May 23, 2010 #4 Share Posted May 23, 2010 How about a soda card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ailuro Posted May 23, 2010 #5 Share Posted May 23, 2010 I agree, a soda card would save him money (as he's probably not allowed alcohol) but is nicer than giving him cash for obc. Or how about a cruising related present with ginger tablets/ seasickness bands, travel size toiletries, ;lanyard for his S&S card etc. All wrapped up in a mortar board themed packaging?

debates2 Posted May 23, 2010 #7 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Being the father of an 18 year old boy, I'd go with the OBC. Let him decided how he spends the gift, but you could suggest the soda package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashxoxo89 Posted May 23, 2010 #8 Share Posted May 23, 2010 OBC would be good. a family friend of ours somehow called the line and had our room decorated with carnival theme stuff and also gave us drink vouchers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clackey Posted May 23, 2010 #9 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Well, I was going to say a 17 year old girl, but I guess a soda card or OBC would do.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie51 Posted May 24, 2010 #10 Share Posted May 24, 2010 I don't think motion sickness pills or wristbands are a good idea. It almost suggests that he will be seasick and he might not even use/need them in which case it is a waste of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kroppinkris Posted May 24, 2010 Author #11 Share Posted May 24, 2010 I was leaning against OBC since his parents are going with us so I figure they'll be in charge of getting him a soda card etc. The girls on the trip are so much easier to buy for! Do the casinos still use real money? I was thinking part of the gift being a roll of quarters since he'll be legal to play slots since he'll be legal for the first time. Thanks!

Kris There will be plenty of opportunities for him to meet females his age. Give him a box of a dozen condoms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffy116 Posted May 25, 2010 #14 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Cash or OBC since I'm sure he will spend more than he is anticipating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trish1c Posted May 25, 2010 #17 Share Posted May 25, 2010 If you want an actual gift . . . how about snorkeling equipment if you can find a good deal. I got mine for about $30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
