Flash lights, lanterns and electric lights on strings. Flood lights for night time parking.
Small toolsets. I actually have 2 x 30-piece toolsets that I carry with me. They aren't high quality tools, but most of what I need to do on the road doesn't demand it. Individual tools and things like tubes of white lithium grease are always needed. Dry silicone spray cans.
Campfire cookers are always good (hot dog pokers, moon pie makers, marshmallow sticks). As are firestarters (I'm hoping to make some for people this year as gifts).
The cheap fold-up camp chairs if you dislike them or for kids.
My daughter rides her el-cheapo razor scooter around anywhere there is blacktop.
Things like Mega Clamps for tidying up hoses and cords.
Even flat screen mounts for small TVs if you know the person needs it.
I even have on my list, bedroom pillows for our bunkhouse so guests don't have to bring pillows. Sheets/towels/comforters/etc. We treat our camper like it's a small apartment.
