Ideas for College Grad gift - future son-in-law....
He's graduating this Saturday and I need to come up with something fast! I'm considering about $100.00 since he is marrying my daughter next year. I got her pearls when she graduated from undergrad but I have a feeling pearls aren't really his thing.

Never a bad choice. Find out what his favorite music or book store is.

9. a gas card
for a station close to him. I get the ones where they can get gas and a soda or treat if they want, unless he is a smoker, then I just go with the gas.
