I usually spend about $50 each on my nieces and nephews. I have already purchased a non-fiction book and $25 amazon gift card for him, and I want to get him one more item.
What is something I can give him that he will use and that is not another gift card. Bonus if it is available on Amazon prime since we are now a week away!
Thank you for any suggestions!

A gift certificate to the movies or even to a fast food place!

A Lego set. If he’s into Star Wars or Harry Potter, they have a ton of sets for those themes. Even older kids still get into them.

Amazon has a gift finder where you can filter teen boy, and $20 and under.

I know you said not a gift card but for a 14 year old boy, unless you know something specific they want, I think a gift card for his favorite fast food place is perfect!
Edited to add: the only idea that might be better is the $20 bill. Can’t ever go wrong with cash for teens!

i agree with cash. and it is easy for you.
boys that age want to go to hang out and do things like go the movie or eat at a burger place with their friends.

Honestly I would give cash, unless you know something he particularly wants.

Unless you have a great idea, I’d tape a $20 to the back of a giant candy bar or something like that. The thrill will be in the big candy bar and again when he spots the $20.

No clothing of any type for a teenager unless you know them well.
He wants the cash.

I gave my 16 year old grandson a wrapped roll of toilet paper for his birthday. Had a little note on the outside. He thought it was funny, unwrapped it, looked at it, not understanding... then turned it over and saw the tape holding dollar bills in the center... LOL

Does he play Fortnite? You could get him some v-bucks for in game purchases. Or you could just give him a $ 20 bill with his other gifts that he could use as he pleases.

Is he into any activities or sports?
My students (high school) love my selection of decals I got on Amazon. One nephew likes to cook, so I got him some seasonings and the recipe for my carrots he loves. One older nephew is into guns and Trump...I am not, but I did find a cool glass with a bullet in it he will love. Those may be out of stock now. My tween boys are getting handwarmers, LED lighted beanies and Smartwool socks. LED strips You can get Yeti cups/low balls for around that price. I've done blankets, puzzles, games, balance boards

For $14.99, you can get him a Carhart beanie which apparently is the fashion statement on the the month with both the guys and gals in our high school. Available at Tractor Supply.
