what is an appropriate high school graduation gift?

[Uabassoon]

I think $25 would be fine. That's what most of my family gave me when I graduated, it was 7 years ago but times haven't changed that much!

Well late congratulations Luvofallhorses.

Thanks for the help I will probably send a check for $25-35.00.

Yes $75. sounds a bit high. Maybe if it were someone you were very close to and rolling in $$$. $25. sounds good to me.

I think that $25 is a good amount and that is what I would probably send. I also love the idea of a popcorn package or similar fun gift.

$75? Yikes, that is steep. It is a gift, not a down payment towards a house...he he he.

You could always get a gift card to Best Buy, or something national. Seems 'kids' always 'need' something from there.

I agree with Uabassoon, $25 is perfect. Especially since you've only seen them on a couple of occasions. Hey, it'll be $25 more than she had before, right??

I'm going with $25. You aren't very close with them, but you want to send *something.* I'm sure if your cousin's daughter is going to college, the extra money will come in handy. $75 is very excessive. I had an aunt who was very, very close to me give me $100. But I was ALWAYS with her, so it seemed fitting that she would give me that much, but $75 for someone you haven't seen much in the last ten years? Yikes!
