So basically my e-business class decided to do a secret santa and we've gone with a very low budget of £5, I seriously have no clue how to spend it...anyone wonna help me out? The gift should be sorted to an 18yr old male. I'd like it if the gift is available in a local shop (UK) nothing online please.

Try one of the shops like the old Gadget Shop, they have lots of small gifts for around £5 and perfect for men.

A bottle of wine is usually acceptable and there are many out there for under a fiver. Also the supermarkets do all sorts of gifts at this season. Little festive sets of cheeses, biscuits, toiletries etc. may not be quite right for an 18-year old perhaps but might be worth a look. Otherwise how about filling a jar with nostalgic sweets? For something a little sillier, the partyware sections are good at this time of year, and the toy section.

Buy a cheap toy or some sexual joke thing, if there 18 and male they'll love it. After all nobody exprects anything much for a fiver.
I got a potato gun and some water bombs last year. I loved it. I was 26 at the time.

No wife beater, he's too young an innocent. Wanking gell, maybe (kidding!). I might try a book shop, some sort of light poetry, maybe a paperback or two, if thin and thus cheap. Include the reciept if he wants to return the gift.

if you had thought about this the new George best £5 note would be ideal but now they are worth £20 and they haven't even been out a month.

Go to a super market and buy two cap guns and caps for like $3. If its a group of boys, everyone will be jealous.
