Ok....they live in the boonies of VT. If I want him to actually be able to go to the store.....I could get a gif card to walmart, blockbuster or KMart.
Other wise I could just get him one that he could use on line... like Curcuit city/best buy.
What do you all think?
Hmmm tough decision. My ds would LOVE the experience of shopping on-line. I don't think you can go wrong with either choice.

I'm not sure what c city is? Is it music? If so, I would go with that.
I would go with Best Buy.

Just so you know....You can not use best buy Gift card on line.
I sent him a Curcuit City one insted.
hmm..they must have changed that, cause the online card used to be for on line purchases.

Wish I had seen this sooner - I've got a little experience with 13 year old boys (that came out a little strange, but you know what I mean). The Circuit City gift card will be great. I was going to ask what kind of things he's in to - if it's skateboarding, then a Fast Forward or Hot Topic card is good; if it's clothes, then Hollister or American Eagle are good. I give lots of gift cards to movie theaters, too. Also gift cards to download music from the internet legally are good.

I graduated last year and took a position in an early childhood school here in the north texas area. The caseload is huge, and heavily weighted with children who have severe disabilities. That, coupled with the news that next year's enrollment will be even higher made me decide to find another position. Since my fellowship year will be over and I won't need to be supervised, I'm a little more marketable than I was last year. I'm not looking forward to another change, but there's gotta be an easier setting to work in.

Thanks....My original thought was for a movie theatre or something...but they don't have anything "big name" withing 45 minutes. It's beautiful up there but I could not stand it. Especially with the snow.
