I am in my 50s and I love anything with a little thought.Something made or something you know they like,maybe a special kind of cookie or candy.The coffee and tea idea that Adam had was good.I would suggest more thought than money.Pay attention to what they say.Maybe your Grandma will mention a book she wants to read,maybe your Grandpa will say he needs a new flashlight.Little things like that mean alot because you paid attention to what they say.Other wise you could give them a cirtificate to a nice restaurant,We always love that.

It's really not important what you get but, what you give! It's not important how much you spend on a gift. It should be given from the heart. Most people even the rich ones, appreciate a gift that is hand made.
I have a sister that is a multi mililonair. I send her a pillow that, I made. I buy on line antique linen in colors she likes & make her a pillow. she is always pleased!

Are your grandparents computer users? A gift card to Staples or a similar store would be appreciated. How about a picture someone takes of you with a digital camera and you can print and adapt as you like?
I draw a blank on the teenage boy. Gift cards for music, I would say. Does your sister wear a particular perfume or bodywash, lotion? What about earrings?
The ten year old girl-is she into journal writing? How about music for her also-gift card or CD? My 11 year old grandaughters like books, hair accessories, sweatshirts,fancy socks, roll-on glitter , flavored lip gloss.

If there are more grandchildren, then why not all of you chip in $20.00 a piece and get them gift cards from the mall.....Or use $20.00 of the money and buy from Wal-Mart, a Scrapbook kit and you grandchildren get together one night and have pictures from families, with different hiolidays and birthdays, births, etc, and make the family scrapbook for them! They will love it !
And around here, A gift card from our Mall allows you to use the card in any store...Great idea also!
Gift cards work also for your teenage brother and sister...!
Your girl-friends sister who is 10 may like a craft to make from wal-mart......Jewelry, photo album kit, (scrapbook) .....Or again, gift card.! She can buy what she wants...Good luck and Merry Christmas!!!

as for the grandparents an assortment of christmas teas or coffes usually works.
sibilings... they are the hardest, see what genre or series they like and look for ewither video or videogame based on it.
girlfriends little sister, a gaint teddybear perchance or a doll, old fashioned but it works
