I'm having a hard time deciding what to give to my groom men (4 of them) for my rehearsal dinner. Yes, I'm getting married soon in 2 weeks.
I'd prefer to spend about 20 dollars each. I'm not interested in common gifts such as flasks. I'm looking for something cool and remembered.
Anyone?

I don't remember what I got mine, either. Maybe that tells you how much the decision really matters.
Flasks or not, when in doubt, Alcohol is always a good choice. We had our reception at a winery, though, so there was already plenty of that. 
BTW, congrats!

Congratulations on your upcoming nuptials.
You could get them a $20 gift card to the iTMS.

Pewter Tankards? Something nice and plain rather than glitzy and shiney. You could maybe get them engraved underneath - something discreet.

I was in a my friend's wedding, and he bought each groomsman a 6pk of bottled beer.
Each 6pk. had personalized labels with our name/nickname on it (with an embarrassing picture of each of us, of course) & each 6pk. had a beer name the groom had made up (usually an inside joke... mine was "Kato's Salty Suds", due to my acquired taste for lots of salt on my food)
We each traded bottles, kinda like "Collect all 6".
I know that all of us still have the whole set. I'm pretty sure each 6pk was less than $20.

Yeah, I'm sure. None of us drank the beer. Just kept it for the sentimental/keepsake value.

Nothing says 'Thank you' like the gift of a hooker.

A nice pocket knife.
I'm not talking a decked out Swiss Army knife.
I mean a real, single blade, simple knife that will last decades.
Like a nice Buck knife or an Oldtimer.
I have a knife like this. It's a perfect fit in the pocket and comes in handy nearly everyday.

When my sister got married, her husband gave us all pocket watches from a place called Things Remembered. Each one was monogramed also. Nothing to expensive, but nice enough to give as a groomsmen gifts.

I gave mine engraved flasks.
You should buy some metal butt plugs and then walk into Things Remembered and ask to have them engraved. It would be hilarious.

Well I know it's a little more than 20 dollars, but I got all my groomsmen iPod Shuffles and they all said it was the best thing I could have gotten them.

At a wedding I was recently at, the groom got his groomsmen pocket watches. I thought it was a pretty cool gift.
