None of those things.
How about a gift card to their favorite store? Apple or other brand AirTag? |

My ILs gets our car detailed when they visit. They borrow our car when they are here but before they leave - they get our car detailed, fluids checked and replenished, and leave a full tank of gas for us. We are very lucky. |

Yes to portable car jump-starter; most have usb and other outlets too so they are useful in power outages.
The ikea tool kit is also a great idea. A steam cleaner thing for a microwave The Oxo Y-shaped peeler or 3-piece silicone spatula/scraper set A variety of tape: duct, painters, scotch, washi, magnetic, and double-sided mounting Magic eraser sheets and Shout wipes A food item, though not everyone likes the same things so this can be risky. But something like a nice selection of chocolate bars can be enjoyed, regifted, used in recipes... Gift card to a place lots of people shop (grocery store, target, amazon) |

| This list is the first I’ve ever heard of the IKEA toolkit but I will be checking it out as a gift. |

| These are great. Even the dull ones. That's the point. |

| Decorative items for the home! You can get really nice stuff at Home Goods and Ross! |

| REALLY good towels. This is one of the most appreciated gifts I’ve given. They get used every day and bring a little luxury! |

Um, no. Decorative is the opposite of practical. And please, please do not bring that Ross junk into my house! NO RAY DUNN! |
