My female cousin has today her 18th birthday and I completely forgot about it. Help me think of some good presents to quickly buy and give to her.

Edit: Already bought a few presents. Thanks to everyone for tips.

    You know her better than us. Some pointer though

    Books, it’s a gift for everybody and everybody loves them

    Some fun stuff reffering to a private joke. Works better with adult who have everything but still works for teens

    A good bottle of wine? She is an adult now

    A concert ticket for whatever artists she might like

      unless the drinking age is 21 where they live… (in the us. yes. we’re puritanical.)

      I second the books. Go to a bookstore and find something that would make you both laugh. Another option is if she’s into any sort of crafts. Knitting, maybe? (but only if you KNOW. and then I highly recomend gift cards. or at the very least receipts.)

      finally, does anybody say ‘no’ to their favorite candy?

        The problem with wine is that she dislikes them in general but a book sounds also good.

      Not wine but I was also thinking about alcohol, maybe Jack Daniels. I know she likes that one.
