hey saintlady, well im 17 years old....so i can help ya out.
money can WORK but if you want to do something else...
you can get the gurls gift-cards for clothing stores....but you would have to find out what kinda of style there into (preppy, emo/punk). if there 'preppy' then a card from your local Hollister store would be fine. and if there into the rock scene then Hot Topic would do it....gurls in my age-group like all that fashion stuff.
