TYH Hashem is so good to us.
My sister has invited us to her house for entire Pesach. While both I and DH work full time, we seem to have no money left for anything. She B"H does not need to work as her husband has become very successful.
I would like to get her a gift to thank her for her generosity, but I feel like a) she has everything, or can buy anything she wants, and b) I don't want it to seem like we are wasting money that is hard for us get, to buy her some gift that is not needed/ wanted.
Any suggestions appreciated.

Maybe something that she wouldn't purchase for herself?
A massage for before/after Pesach
A personalized seder plate or other judaica item?
A blown up picture of their family in a puzzle to keep her kids busy while they prepare for Pesach or something you can all do on Chol Hamoed?

You can offer a nonmonetary gift, like entertaining her kids for a day or cooking for her.

Are you artistic? Can you make her something?

A letter stating how much you appreciate her, and how lucky you are to have such a wonderful sister can go a long way.
Is it possible to make a dessert or some side dishes to bring over. Maybe something that’s no bake/cook.
That with a letter on beautiful stationery will be cherished
Also baby sit all the kids so that she could rest up or offer to make meals

You can offer to make breaded shnitzel and freeze it to fry fresh. No pesach stove required.

A lovely album of family pictures. You can also take pictures of your Pesach with her and make that into an album with a lovely thank you note.

Thank you all for the great suggestions. I just asked her what I can bring or make for Yom Tov and she told me in all honesty that it was all already sorted, just to bring ourselves and not to schlepp extras. Something personal would be best.

A set of Al netilas yadayim towels or a nice tablecloth- even if she has they wear our eventually and will need replacing.
Or a new game for all the kids (or adults) to play
