ALT-2 Gift Ideas for Guys Age 17 20
It can be difficult to get a great gift for a guy that is 17-20. You want to get him something that he will appreciate and use. He may like one of the following ideas.
Computer
If he does not have a computer or if his is outdated, then this can make a great gift for a guy of this age. Computers are used by many on a daily basis. He may use it for school, work or personal endeavors. He may enjoy a laptop even if he already has a desktop computer. You will find many different models at different price points.
IPad or netbook
If he does not really need a full computer but would like to surf the Internet while on the go, then you may want to purchase the popular IPad or a netbook. These are smaller and are very reasonable. You may want to add a service plan for a more extravagant gift.
Smartphone
A guy of this age may enjoy a smartphone so that he can both make phone calls and surf the Internet on a tiny, compact and convenient device. Remember that the service plans for these are expensive, so you may need to pay for them or make sure that he would be willing to pay for it.
Gift card
A gift card may be the most useful gift for a guy who is 17-20 even if it is not the most poetic. Guys of this age are typically still in school and may not have a lot of spending cash because they do not work or only have part time jobs. Spending power at a store that you know they frequent can make the ideal gift. Of course you could also consider cash or a prepaid credit card to give them versatility.
