Wolferman's english muffins were always a hit with my grandma.

Mine is 93. I just sent her a set of new high quality sheets. She was happy as she hadn't a new set in years nor one with that high thread count.

My mil is 93, but in her 80's she loved getting her favorite treats. She had everything and as she slowed down and travel was too hard on her she was happy w/food. This year I got her Sees dark chocolate chews. She loves them. She'll be happy as a clam. If I get her anything in addition to the Sees she'll be upset w/me.
I bought mil's sister books, because she likes to read.

I got my 87 year old dad an electric heated throw. He’s always cold and will enjoy it year round.

My mom loves to play cards but her arthritis makes it difficult to shuffle so I bought her a card shuffler. She will probably poo-poo it as not needed but I think it might be fun.
She also loves variety puzzle magazines , jigsaw puzzles and treats so she’s getting all those too.
Not sure if your parents are in a winter climate? What about the ice grippers to put on the bottoms of their footwear? I’ve also been thinking of getting my mom a lightweight rechargeable stick vac. She still hauls her central vac out and this would be much easier for the small amount of vacuuming she needs to do.

I bought her a card shuffler. I bought a card shuffler for my grandkids. I have one and they love to play with it. A great idea!

A couple years ago I ordered a bunch of cards from Etsy and stamps for my mil to send to family and friends. This year I gave her a can opener ( can opener ) that is very easy to operate, which is nice for older folks. She's an avid reader and very thrifty, so I ordered a few books on Ebay by an author we both like whose books are mostly out of print.
