In the UK, the giftcard centre.co.uk is a great choice, as they are an online gift card superstore.
Avoid giving cash, grocery store gift cards, gas station gift cards or department store gift cards (unless you are sure they shop at that particular department store regularly). These may seem more impersonal and much too convenient.
Enjoy the upcoming Holiday Season and Happy Gift Giving!
