Useful Gift Ideas For Boyfriend

I'm leaving for college in a week, and my boyfriend of 1 year is leaving in 3 weeks. His birthday is 3 days after he moves, so I need a birthday/going away gift that will be good for college! It kind of stinks because I can't do anything special with him. I'll be 4 hours away. But I still want to give him something meaningful, and something he will use! And ideas would be wonderful!

I am an eight-two year old male. When I was eighteen, I received a stainless steel pocket knife with a scissors, nail file, and knife blade. (Neiman-marcus men's department) I still use it almost daily. Try a jewelry store where his initials can be engraved on it, or check out swiss army knives - most hardware stores carry them, or go online.
Be sure he gives you a penny when you give it to him.

I filled a pop up hamper (or trashcan, laundry bag, etc.) with food items, a book you could both enjoy reading (or a sports magazine, bible devotional, joke book etc.), some note card or a phone calling card if you can't afford a cell or long distance. Some playing cards, a CD of special music to remind him of you, your photograph, puzzle books, etc. This doesn't have to cost a lot of money and can be personalized for the recipient. Add some home-made cookies since the way to a mans hear is through his stomach!

I assume that you are on here bc $ is tight too, a sweet (possibly corny) gift could be to glue pics of you together on notebooks, secure the edges with fabric paint or they will peel up, and print a couple pictures of you on iron-on paper then iron them on pillow cases for him. That way he will always have reminders of you. You could also burn a copy of a favorite dvd and send microwave popcorn so you could watch a movie "together." For 8.99 a month you could each get netflix and have the same movies sent each week if you enjoyed that. If you're up for spending more, having a watch engraved would be really nice.

Give him a nice throw for his dorm room. He'll think of you when he uses it.
