Following are two great online senior citizen gift store sites and ideas for some thoughtful presents which can be purchased quickly and easily for any budget and for any older adult.

- Nosey Cup: The Nosey Cup has a cut-out side that enables an older person to tilt the cup farther up than a regular cup, without the “top” of the cup bumping the nose. This is a useful present for a senior who can’t drink easily from a cup due to difficulty tilting their head back. This nifty present sells for the budget price of only $3.49.
- Long Playing Card Holder: Active seniors who enjoy playing card games with others, but who have limited hand usage, will enjoy this thoughtful gift. This long rack displays cards so they may be easily seen, added, or removed much more easily than trying to hold multiple cards. Pencils fit on the front of the holder and it can also hold recipes or memos. Price: just $4.95
