Low budget gift suggestions? (mander.xyz)

I've been searching online for some trinket/budget gifts but couldn't find anything interesting. The person I have in mind for the gift is in his 60's, into tech and a geek, although the gift doesn't necessarily need to cater to his geeky side.

I'm just dropping the question here since Lemmy has a solid geek/tech userbase, and maybe some of you have better ideas than me.

TIA

Some people consolidate on things in their 60s after retirement and don’t necessarily want more things. If this person has shown signs of that - then something disposable like food/snacks/sweets.

Homemade cookies, pumpkin bread, lasagna, flowers, handmade Christmas cards are great
