This year instead of giving gifts of cash to any high school graduate consider giving them a gift card; there are many advantages to giving a gift card instead. The most important one is that it increases the chances of them using it for something useful like buying supplies for their upcoming freshmen year in college; of course though that's only if you give them the "right" gift card. I have made a list of the top 5 gift cards most wanted by incoming college freshmen this year, here they are: 1) Bed Bath and BeyondFinishing high school and moving onto a college dorm room means buying new bedroom things, bathroom things, and even kitchen wear sometimes. There are many things found at this store that will be needed at a reasonable price during these coming months. For example: new comforters, pillows, rugs, and many more things will most likely be on sale. Giving a high school graduate a $20 or $25 gift card from this store will provide them with the ability to buy something nice for their new home away from home, and it will fill them with joy at the thought of you thinking about this for them. This is a great choice of gift card; especially for those students who plan on moving away to college dorms. 2) Wal-MartThis is the best card to give! Yes, Wal-Mart will be the high school graduates best friend some time soon after the graduation celebration. It will be the place where they buy almost everything for their new journey onto college. They will need storage supplies, school supplies, kitchen wear, plus many more things that they never thought they'd need to buy. Wal-Mart is the store that they will find themselves at most and gift cards will be very helpful to students who will for sure be on a budget. It can help with groceries even; so consider this gift card the most.
3) Amazon.comThis is the place to go for books these days, therefore a gift-card from Amazon is perfect if you know that the new graduate will be paying for his or her own books this semester. Even if they won't be paying for their own books, giving a gift card from this store will allow them to buy a fun book that they'll read during time when they need to relax in between tests and research papers at college. Amazon is great for used textbooks, new text-books, stationeries, and many more school related things so let your beloved graduate know that the cost of books will not be huge this semester with a gift card from Amazon. 4) I-TunesWe all know how much high school graduates are into music. That's basically all they will use for relaxation while away at college. They all have Ipod's now, MP3 players and some just like to listen to music on their computers. I-Tunes is a store filled with not just music from every artist out there but they also have tv shows, movies, and books that can be bought. An I-Tunes gift card will allow your teen to stop illegally downloading and start supporting their favorite artists while at the same time getting quality products which can then be transported to their portable devices. 5) Best BuyElectronics are something that will definitely be needed during the college years. Laptops, TV sets, DVD players, Stereo's, MP3's, Tape Recorders and headsets are amongst the few. Best Buy gift-cards will make purchasing this equipment a bit more affordable and maybe they could even use the gift towards buying a movie or batteries for their cameras. This is a wonderful gift and you can be sure it will not just be put away in a wallet or purse; it will most likely be used rather quickly. I hope this list has helped you and that you will now be more knowledgeable of the graduates coming up needs as far as stores they will need to buy stuff from goes. Good luck to all during high school graduation gift shopping! By Idalia Benavides
