Electronics are also out of the question (most of the time), my grandparents have a tough enough time figure out how to navigate through a cell phone and stuff like that. You probably don't want to get clothes either because it's definitely hard to find the right style. Of course there are exceptions, I am just using my own experience as an example right now.
So is there anything that all of us can relate to? Food? Maybe, but you're not going to wrap some food in a box right?
Here you go Grandma, Merry Christmas!
Yeah that's awkward.
I think what I will buy is maybe like... a Christmas carol CD, or a cassette tape (lol), or maybe even a CD with some songs that they like. Surely they have CD players, and they KNOW how to use that! Of course there are different types of grandparents, different types of personalities, so do what you think is right! Think about what they know and will enjoy, and try to suit their needs.
Something like this maybe!
Either way, some people may like it, some people won't. In my case, I am pretty sure it is appropriate. Who knows, maybe for your grandparents they want a new fishing rod or something! In any case, happy shopping!

Personally you can't go wrong with old paul anka records.
Haha just buy them like fuzzy socks or something! Grandparents usually don't really care what you get them, it's more of the thought that counts, as cliche as that sounds.
i bought a mosin nagant to my grand pa he add so much fun with it man like a kid i think its the nostalgia
My Grandma gave me a pack of hot dogs from her freezer to take home. I got it home, ready to stick it in my freezer, when I notice the expiration date--Aug 1988. No shit! i guess time really does speed up...
My grandmother always gives me sweaters
I think a gift hamper of edibles would be an appropriate way to give food as a present! My grandparents are overseas and don't celebrate Christmas so I've never had the experience of gifting the elderly before XD
I wish I still had grandparents!
followin and supportin :]
WE get yelled at anytime we get our grandmother anything......You really don't want to piss off the little old lady from the old country! lol
Depends.
i got my grandma a kindel. shes going to flip her shit, then be mildly confused and have me set it up, then show her how to use it.
Gift cards always work then you can go back over there later and take them back cause they never remember they have them lol
the christmas album is a great idea. old folk love their christmas music. that was their led zeppelin back in the day
hows a bout a casket. that was mean.
Get them a computer that they will never use and just use it for yourself
great ideas
Good stuff :P haha
I genereally don't give gifts to extended family such as grandparents. Usually, my grandmother just likes having company over, some my presence is my present.
hard choice. some sort of cloths is always good
Haha, I don't give my grandma or grandpa gifts, and they don't expect me to XD
"I swear to god the puppy was alive before I wrapped him inside the box!"
I always bought my grandmother ceramic things to put on her shelves.
I think we once got my grandparents smoked salmon and they loved it, because old people are weird.
That's a good idea...cd's n music. My grandma loves that stuff. Thanx.
My grandma always liked stuffed animals or animal figurines. She couldn't get enough of that stuff!
