Ideas for my DH's grandmother...
I'm done shopping for Christmas except for my DH's grandmother. She's a wonderful lady and she loves helping the family in anyway possible and gives her money away before spending it on herself. I'm trying to come up with a good gift idea but what do you buy the women who has everything and wants nothing?? She loves shopping at second hand stores and plays bingo frequently but I hate giving money as a gift since its seems so impersonal.

Re: Ideas for my DH's grandmother...
Ah!! I'm so sorry that I'm NO help; I entered the post hoping for ideas for mine and DH's grandmothers, but listed just doesn't really fit...
I'll keep thinking and will hopefully revisit this post FULL of ideas!!
Some ideas I've had for grandmas:
New gloves and scarf set
Nicely framed family photo (this year I am actually doing a photo charm bracelet from Snapfish for my grandma with picture of the family)
Ring with birthstones of all the grandkids
Gourmet food baskets-my grandma LOVES these
Cashmere cardigan
If she loves bingo, how about a gift basket full of cute bingo stuff? Put in the different colored bingo markers, maybe some snacks to take along. Complete it with some traditional "good luck" charms like a rabbits foot or a troll doll. You could put it all in a bag that she carries her bingo stuff in.
Just a thought...
Before my great-grandma passed away (this is a woman who had EVERYTHING), she loved lasanga my mom made, so we'd get a disposable casserole dish, prepped and everything, all she had to do was throw it in the oven. She also LOVED pizza, so we did gift certificates to the local place.
My DH's grandma loves sudoko puzzles, jigsaw puzzles, to occupy her day. His other grandma likes lotions and slipper, so lots of bath and body works.
my grandma--I get that woman wine--that's how I know I'm related to her
