Oh, The Places We Don't Go!

While not too frugal, my standard graduation gift to give for the High Schooler (and only to those who send me an announcement) is a copy of Dr. Seuss's, "Oh the Places You'll Go" along with a small check because every graduate needs cash.

For the College Graduate I give a copy of one of the "Worst Case Scenario" books and a modest check. This is my standard gift for those two events. I do keep a "gift" box so that when my daughter needs a last minute gift item for an event she has been invited to, I don't have to rush out shopping. Wal-mart and Target after Christmas have neat "gifty" things that have worked over time.
