Gift card to a restaurant she likes?

Also: Tell your DH that you're washing your hands of it and it's up to him. Give him and amount of $$ to spend and walk away from the whole mess.

This! Why are you shopping for her? It's his mother.

Not OP, but This would come back and bite me in the ass. She'd wonder why her gifts weren't as good as every one else's. Gah.

Who cares?

Gift certificate to a restaurant she likes, or some other service or experience. Maybe a membership to a local museum or something. Nothing to clutter up her house.

Is she the kind to appreciate a donation made in her name? Maybe an animal from Heifer International? http://www.heifer.org/ (also, I'll readily admit to being terrible at in-law gifts, so...)
