Graduation gift ideas for college student living at home?

gift ideas for her graduation image

bambi

I have several friends graduating this year. All live at home with their parents and are planning to move onto grad school (medical, pharmacy, dental, etc.). Meaning, I don't need to buy any home decor items, resume books, or anything else "practical" that I've seen on gift list ideas. I wanted to give money, but as I'll probably only be able to give $20 each, I feel that amount looks cheaper than a cheap gift.....

Answer
the only thing i could possibly think of right now is...
give them something memorable, something that can be useful... or you could always put together a cheap basket (a whole lot of cheap things that would make it seem like you spend a lot of money but not to cheat that it noticeable that it cheap. you want to get things that look expensive but isn't)

or
u can buy a card, t-shirt, a bag of there favorite candy,throw in a picture fame in a really cute laundry basket and call it a day

or

u can take it back to 5th grade and buy little things that stand for something like your friendship, memories etc... and put a note or card in it explain what each thing stood for in y'all relationship as friends...

is it okay to ask for gifts for my graduation party?

I'm planning a graduation party and I'd like to receive presents I can use for college so I was hopping to include on the invitation " for gift ideas please see my wishlist on ___" or out a link to a website with a college checklist. Is this rude?

Answer
No not really, I think it might be rude. When I graduated I didn't ask for anything and by the time the party was over that night I had a total of $700 in my pocket from people just giving small amounts randomly. It's not really a mandatory gift giving thing.
