Choosing a gift for your brother
Fun beats sensible: a board game that becomes a family tradition, a nostalgic LEGO set, a gadget for his desk. Most popular brother gifts sit between £15 and £40.
If he games, check the platform (PlayStation, Xbox, Switch or PC) before buying anything that plugs in. If he's into a sport, consumables like golf balls are always welcome.
Questions
What do you buy a brother who has everything?
Something fun or nostalgic (a board game, a LEGO set, a retro gadget) or a consumable for his hobby. Avoid more clothes unless you know his size and style.
What is a good gift for a brother under £30?
Board and party games, LEGO sets, quality socks, a flask or a hobby consumable like golf balls. Plenty of the popular picks here are under £30.
