I give gift cards for movie theaters. For $20-$25, they can get their ticket and snacks and teenagers are always at the mall/movie theater.

For a teen - go for the iTunes gift card.

My 14 year old who sits, loves the gift cards.
They really like the Visa ones so they can shop where ever they want to. And the itunes. I know the visa ones have a surcharge, but I found out if you get them from your bank if they offer them (Chase is my bank) they have no charge to customers. As a matter of fact both my kids are getting them from me for Christmas as a extra little gift.
Merry Christmas!

C A S H !! When she sits closer to the holiday, double her payrate or give her a $20 tip.

I always do cash. I'm not buying gift cards this year because who knows if the store/restaurant will be in business in a few months.

We always gave a gift along with a gift card or cash. Usually we would buy a necklace or a pair of earrings. Kohls always has a great deal on jewelry and my teenage daughter loves shopping there.
