like said everyone has a walmart. for a 13-17 year old. clothes is a good option. like to dress nice for the girls.or personal items like deoderant. after shave.etc.list can go on....:)

Well for that age, I think the best one will be gift card or gift certificate, not all 13or 17 the same size or the likes. Walmart,
Target, Boscov, Kolh, Sears, Don't forget the Sneaker, that most teen wear today,so the Sport Store gift card.

I would suggest an ITUNES gift card. My Grandson is almost 14 and I know he likes this. They can download games and music.

Just wanted to thank everyone for their replies. For the 13-17 yr old, I ended up getting a gift card to a bookstore (that by the way carries all sorts of stuff that a kid may want), a MP3 Player, ear phones, gloves, socks, hat, Pez, chocolate santas, tooth brush, toothpaste,. Then I also drew for a baby girl 0-1 yr old, gave her a quilt that I made, baby bottles, diaper wipes, lotions of all kinds for a baby, bibs, rubber duckie and a story book.

I have no one to buy for, so, this felt good for me to do. I figured what they will do is divide up the items among other kids, to make sure everyone gets something, so I felt good about this.
