Anyone have some good suggestions on what to get 80-something year old parents who have everything and if they don't, they just go buy it?

I was thinking I might make up a casserole of something they each really love and/or a fruit or other type of gift basket that I make myself.

Hit me with some great ideas. My thinking cap is broken...

Yup - gift certificates you make up for errands run, certain chores, or even a gift certificate to a restaurant they like for a nice day out ... or a ride somewhere when the weather is iffy ...

Or a calendar with everyone's birthdays and anniversaries written on it!

Gift certificates for the car's oil change, for the grocery store, and for the barber and hair salon. You will be helping local businesses as well!

how about a gift certificate for getting their windows cleaned in the house, or a cleaner , or one for the garden or mowing the lawns,i know at that age everything just becomes harder to manage, have parents that age as well,or maybe to their favourite cafe or restaurant,
