I think I would rather get him something from me and my head than something he put in my head! Plus, I know he wants to try this place out, he suggested we try it out together when I move there (in 2 weeks!!) and it's definitely not something he would have thought of when making a christmas list.
... But now I might be having second thoughts...
What about calling his parents and ask him if they want to go in with you and you all get him one big thing off his list. That way, he is still getting something he wants, yet you aren't having to put out a whole lot of money for it. You and his parents can split it. Then get him something else small that is a surprise that you know he'll like....like a gift certificate to the place you're talking about or something like that.
