Maybe a battery bank? Could always use those.

Okay, This will be plan C...  Its useful, some people would want it, and falls in that price range.  Although, I would like something a bit better.

How about $25 worth of money? Everyone would want it. Or a gift card.

EH...  I'd rather get the battery bank.

Yeah that's a pretty solid bet. Even if they don't like it, they should still do it, so it's still practical :P

And a nice selection of unusual alcohol is banned? xD

Its not banned so much as frowned upon...  Its suppose to be family friendly.
