Thats a great amt. of money to work with so Ill be back tonight with some ideas for you.


Do you know if there are any coffee shops or convenience stores nearby that you could do gifts cards to?

Also, Are they all going to the same college? A college bookstore gift card would be nice too.


How about making them an away from home bag.....maybe a pillow that they could keep on their beds, a book to read, a cup and tea and a snack.

or

A junk food bag or box .I think that all teenagers like junk food.

Is anyone going to have a VCR or DVD player? ( I cant believe what kids take to college nowadays) Movie Rental cards and munchies would be great.


Since they are all girls, You could make a kit full of feminine things like lotions, nail polish and removers and lip gloss---you could really extend this.


You could also get t-shirts for them with a group picture printed on them that way they could sort of feel "together"---even nightshirts would work.



Thats it off the top of my head. Ill be back with more tonight.


Tami
