I'd forgotten, yesterday, to mention Ebay. Ebay is a major outlet for all manner of goodies, but largely only when you know what you want and how much you are willing to shell out. To this end, I refrained yesterday until I could offer some guidance.
This past year I've used a theme, peppered with random standards (specific authors my wife likes, or bands) that have gone over acceptably in the past. You know your loved one best, and I certainly can't offer anything more than what I did this past year: "adventure". I set out with an ideal, Indiana Jones, but found that many recreations were simply beyond my ability to afford. I branched out carefully and found a few items that fell within the theme and my budget, and struck out boldly.
This past year has been a success, gift-wise. Except the 1st season of STNG.

Now why do you think it wasn't a success? A whole season of my favorite show? I razz you because it was so expensive, but the only reason I haven't been glued to the screen is that... we don't have a TV. No, mainly because the collection didn't come with that all-important accessory: time. You can give that to me for Mother's Day.
It didn't get the reaction most of the "on" presents usually get. Someday we'll have the mother of all marathons: ST:NG, Lord of the Rings, and James Bond.
