What do you buy for someone turning 70?

Anonymous
I'm near 70 and here are gifts I have liked:

- home and garden tour in a historic area
- afternoon tea with my family
- gardening tools
- rosebush for my garden
- books
- hoodies
- tickets for a play
- hiking poles

Still on my wishlist
- new yoga mat
- yeti mug
- kayak lessons

I think at her age, she probably already has whatever she wants to buy for herself.
Right??

So a great gift would be an “experience” gift.

I do not know what her favorite pastimes are - - but if she loves Italian cuisine > perhaps a nice dinner out at an upscale Italian restaurant.

Is she an avid reader?
Maybe attend a book signing of a popular author at a local bookstore.

Does she love to laugh?
Tickets 🎟️ to a comedy show would be perfect!

Hope these suggestions help!

A really big tub of lotion, leak proof underwear and persimmon soap.

I am 70, and I want windsurfing or foiling lessons.

It's weird to me to crowdsource a gift for your mother. You know her. We don't.
