What gifts did you get your parents for the holidays?

I made/ordered a physical photo book of a holiday we took together. Turned out really damn well.
I got my mother a really nice shawl/scarf kind of piece, and my stepfather a selection of cool Canadian snacks (salmon jerky, etc.) and craft Canadian beer. They live in Europe, so it'll be new for him!
The new EA Battlefront for my father-in-law. I'm getting my sister-in-law The Art of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, though it would make a good gift for my parent-in-laws.
I got some perfume for the both of them. My mom wanted some, and my stepdad's hard as fuck to shop for.
I usually send kcups to my dad since I get a discount on them and he lives in the middle of nowhere where it's hard to get them.

Every year, as far back as I can remember, my dad has always said that he just wants my sister and I to come home for Christmas. And while that is very sweet we can't just not give him anything for Christmas so we almost struggle every year getting him something. There's never anything he wants or needs so we typically have to get creative or ask our mom what she thinks he needs (she typically has a few ideas lol).
So this year we're giving him a new computer/office chair. He has his own one-man business he runs from home and his current chair is my old, used computer chair from when I lived at home. He claims it's perfectly fine but that thing is so worn out I can't imagine it being comfortable still. So this year he's getting a new one whether he likes it or not :D

An air fryer for my mom (she really wants one). Not sure about my dad yet, he's hard to shop for. Will be keeping an eye on this thread as well.
I used to actually try and get my mom stuff she wants, but its almost a guarantee she will return it. So instead of wasting my time I just get her a Visa or AMEX gift card and she can get whatever she'd like.
My dad I usually get him an Amazon giftcard and some rand other thing I find. I got him a skull mug last year.

I used to get them random crap. But since they watch my daughter daily I have kicked it up a notch or ten. Gift cards, nice clothes, take them out for a nice dinner. etc. They don't really want or need it, but with the money we save in daycare? I feel like this is a way to give them a little something for their efforts.
Got my dad a Sony HDR TV. I've always wanted to buy him something since he deserves it after all the hardship. We were always poor when he raised my but tried his best to support us. To be able to finally buy him something was a great feeling.
Getting my mom some money. That's about it.
