What to get in-laws?

[ConsternationStation]

I've almost finished Christmas shopping but DH and I are really struggling to think of something to get his parents. Both mid-60s, they don't have a tonne of hobbies other than socialising and their dog(!), and they like travel a few times a year. Hard to think of something nice (and not too generic) when they have everything they want/need, or are capable of purchasing anything they want, when our max budget is £20 each.

Any suggestions?

a meal voucher would be nice if they like going out I think. At least it would get used. I don’t know what else really. What about homewares either ? Nice dinner set or something

Something for the garden? A bird feeder?

I'm nearly that age and my dh is. We would love a meal voucher

Do they have an independent cinema near them? I’d do tickets/vouchers for there if so.

Any travel books or travel magazine subscriptions they'd like?

Or some handy travel gadgets like Evo mini shaver or folding lay over blanket or incharge6/neat charging cable.

A hamper

Good travel mugs for journeys /dog walks. Smash ones are around £10 each, don’t leak and keep your drink warm. One each in a box with a voucher for a local coffee shop makes a nice gift.

A meal voucher might be a good idea. It would certainly get used! I just always feel a bit bad when there's not an actual present for opening, which is silly when we are talking about adults in their sixties and not children, I know!

Coffee

Custom artwork of their dog maybe? Etsy has lots of different styles if you search pet portraits
