Gamers Hamper

Posts: 439 Forumite
Hi my hubby is the one I hate to buy for - because he isnt that fussy by presents!!! However he is a games programmer and loves playing games ie. gamecube, xbox360 and nintendo ds. I was thinking a hamper would be great - but he is a serious gamer....so I dont want to make silly amateur mistakes!!! Is there any gamers out there that can help? His fav. games are Zelda, think there is a new one out soon which I could put in the hamper. Also he always gets a bag of licorice when he gets a big new game - to help concentrate! Any ideas would be welcome! Also something fuky to hold it all in, that he could use again, not just a box! Sorry if I am askingtoo much!:p

You can often buy storage boxes designed for holding computer games which might do as a hamper base for you. If he has a portable system then a travel case for it or screen protectors?:staradmin:starmod: beware of geeks bearing .gifs...:starmod::staradmin:starmod: Whoever said "nothing is impossible" obviously never tried to nail jelly to a tree :starmod:0

hi pooh ~ this all depends on what he has
* magazine subscriptions
* games tower
* games/vouchers
* zelda phantom hour glass walkthrough/guide (if thats the game you are buying)
* xbox360 online menbership/points
* gadgets ~ ie keyboard for x360/mamory cards/controlers
* drinks/sweets
* memorabilia ~ ie tshirts/keyrings
* decals for his x360/gamecube
For a basket i would use the games tower or a nice basket which he can then use to store all his controlers/accessories0 -
In gamestation they have heaven for a hamper!! Car window stickers, badges, bracelets, key rings, bags, t-shirts, car decals, etc etc! I dont know if they have them on the website too?

Hi,
Can't think of much to add to postingalwaysposting's list apart from maybe some red bull! How about a joke gift one of those hats that will hold a couple of drinks and have straws going straight to your mouth?

For those of you who like extreme sports, this might interest you. Red Bull sponsors a line up of motocross, BMX, and skateboarders. Like Ryan Sheckler, Travis Pastrana (from Maryland), Justin Homan, and many more. Red Bull teamed up with New Era and made a 59Fifty Red Bull fitted. These hats were only given out to sponsored athletes.0
