What kind of gift should I give to friends that are about to move?

my best friend of 20 years and his wife are about to move out of state in a few weeks. I thought it'd be a nice gesture to get them a little 'going away' gift, nothing extravagant of course, just a small something. I could get them a bottle of nice bourbon but it seems a bit impersonal. Is there some type of household item that would be appropriate? Again I'm not trying to make this a huge deal or get something super fancy, just something simple to wish them well on their new journey.

A bottle of bourbon and some glasses would be cool

didn't think about accompanying glasses, that could be a good idea.

hmmmm idk walt. I'm afraid that would send a message to the wife like "hey, you're a woman, you need this".

Btw neither of them cook very much.

they're moving from the deep south to Texas.

that's a pretty good suggestion. I was trying to rack my brain about things for the home that they could get use out of, but a radar detector isn't a bad idea.

Just put it all in a box so it's easier for them to move..
