What’s a good present to get an older person for Christmas?

Amazon gift card if you don't know them very well. If you know a lot about them, for instance...if it is an older woman who loves jewelry...try Etsy for some hand made crafty jewelry.

For an older guy, you can't go wrong with scratch tickets.

Something 'consumable', food or drink, or maybe something like toiletries. The thing is, when you're pushing seventy, if you want something you very likely already have it. So, 'stuff' is best avoided, One can have too may cafetieres, knife sharpeners, coasters, teaspoons, cookery books...they just get in the way and have to be found new homes.

@NeddyKelly I'd say 2 out of 3 isn't bad! ;)
I want the Candy Crush hardback cover recipe book from Amazon but I’d imagine most people don’t.

It's a good question.

Unless they're into something specific, most gifts are likely just shelf fillers.
Something to be tolerated for a while before being thrown out/ given to charity stores etc.

I suppose if you know of a cause they support you could always make a donation in their name.

Sig saur or a henry.
@MasterLee Sig really fucked up with their M17/P320, refusing to acknowledge it has a nasty drop fire problem. Myself, I prefer my Beretta 92FS, Bersa Thunder .380, and Bersa Thunder .22, as well as my Ruger 10/22...
Gift cards, sometimes. By this phase of life, they either have everything or want for nothing.

Alternately, something that makes their life easier, or speaks to a favorite pastime.

A coupon for a massage.
Tickets to a live show of some sort.
A VR headset with a bunch of games.

If it’s a lady, give her jewelry and perfume. Make her feel like Elizabeth Taylor.

That depends on the person and your relationship with them

Engraved pens with their initials.

Bamboo sheets, socks

Gift cards.

If they are close to you , a photo in a frame. If not close like a work friend, a gift certificate or a bucket of popcorn
Guys like power tools, but if they are old they may have everything already. Still, a new set of carving knives is always fun.
Women.. vibrator maybe? no idea really.

Gift card ✨ Maybe windshield wipers 🤔
