Hey all,
I thought I could help out some parents/sibs/SOs with ideas on gifts that cadets will appreciate for Christmas/Hanukkah/your holiday of choice. An asterisk indicates doolies might particularly enjoy.
Room:
-Hot water heater with auto-shutoff*
-Monitor (under 24")*
-Printer*
-Keurig machine + K-cups
-Gaming console
-Small projector*
-Desktop speaker system
Life:
-Boingo subscription (civilian WiFi)*
-Netflix/Hulu/etc. subscription (dangerous for your 4-deg)
-Chegg/WolframAlpha Pro subscription for techy majors
-IRA contribution/max-out
-Waffle top (sand color) for upperclass only
-Under Armor HeatGear ABU socks/thermal base layers/in-regs gloves*
-Black backpack (gives your doolie personality!)*
Recreation:
-Subway/Chik-fil-A/Dunkin'/local restaurant gift cards*
-Gas station gift cards
-Bluetooth speaker (rugged is better)
-Ski/snowboarding passes
-Climbing gear (backpack, jackets, clothing, protective gear, etc.)
-Camping gear (pack, tent, stove, food, sleep system)
-USAFA clothing
Other cadets/parents feel free to jump in with your suggestions/recommendations. These are what I could come up with short notice.
