21st present, how much do you spend?

[A Mum]

An engraved puta mug is always a good keepsake, I still have some from my 21st, this can mirror your spending capacity and it's hard to detect a dollar value.

This is what I was going to suggest...



But is that, are we old fashioned...lol

Just chip in with some mates and get him a stripper ... no-one will notice or care how much the 'present' was then.

haha, would love to, except I dont think too many of the mums of the kids that are going would approve (I reckon his GF would get into the spirit of that though)

[dedja]

I've seen it done many, many years ago ... completely shocked the ladies, the blokes couldn't believe their luck, the oldies nearly died of heart attacks, and the girlfriend ran outside in tears.

All in all, a good night!

My first stripper experience as a 17yo was at a 21st and i got treated to the two blondes in the clam shell.
a present that everyone can enjoy!

we had strippers at the Footy club 1 year...... no wonder we played well that seasons

anyway I have a similar conundrum-

I have to attend a 21st in about a months time for a female co-worker. We get on like a house on fire and she has a b/f I have NFI what to get her

If you're getting a stripper PM me for a recommendation.

stripper is the way to go!
girl friends will hate it, parents will be disgusted, but the bday boy will be happy as larry
and its his bday so thats all thats important!

I didn't realise strippers were so highly rated and popular as none of my mates at Uni had them at parties or buck's shows.
The last time I saw one was in the Pink Pussycat in King's Cross in about 1974, shortly before it was bombed.
It was all a bit gross, and the drinks were very expensive, and we only went in because a mate's wife wanted to see what it was all about.
Even as a teenager my line was that I wasn't into pictures or shows, but only "the real thing" - perhaps that was the pitch of my generation who brought you the "make love not war" era.

My daughter is 21 in August. The subject of a party has not been bought up yet. I suspect she will want cash in lieu of a party. How much is appropriate is the question

[White Line Fever]

Tell her that ca$h will be all spent in a few months, but the memories of a good 21st are with you forever.
Some of the stories i remember from mine are great!
Have a party!!!

My sister's 21st was last year so my parents gave me $1200. I was in the US when I turned 21 and thus I didn't have a party, so mum said I could have $1200 as that's how much they spent on my sister's. I was pretty stoked!

anywhere from $500-$4000

depends on how many friends she has, what they would drink
what you can afford and all that!
I would say at least a $1000 if she isnt having a party.
