I just ordered a somewhat large order from FMG. Now you can ship anything for $5 through FedEx ground, regardless of weight. I was really impressed by their all-assortable pricing, too. The savings from that were close to half the price of my order. (I got about 50 items.)
I haven't gotten the order, but from the good things i've heard, their good prices, and great customer service, I most likely won't order anywhere else from now on.

I knit, and recently a few ladies and church got me into making "prayer shawls." There's a religious thing to it, but basically they're knitted (or crocheted) blankets of any size, usually wide enough to put around one's shoulders. I know that there is always a few at the local food pantry, if someone looks cold, or like they're just having a bad day, we've sent them on mission trips to pass out to victims, and the nursing homes always give a list for Christmas of their residents who won't have someone coming to be with them for the holidays. The blankets never have to look great or be in complicated patterns - no matter what it always has cheered the person up. It would be something that's easy to do and coordinate.
