If its a dude get him a Maglite Solitaire Flashlight. Its only about €10 and the smallest maglite i.e. fits nicely on a keyring - I got one ten years ago in a "workplace Secret Santa" and still have it to this day... best Christmas present ever !

If its a chick head down to an adult store and buy her a chocolate willy*; Hilarity will ensue !
