Cheap you look if you just run into a shop and buy something that has a high price on it so you can show off. Or something that is a very hot item. Anyone can do that. Christmas is about showing you care. It's not about the price of the gift. If that is what Christmas is for her then she is not a friend at all. So show you care, choose or give what shows you know her and you care about her. So the present you choose, no matter what it is, is a sign of you knowing her and caring about her. You can make a box or basket with all kind of small things that makes one smile for example. This can be music, chocolate, funny socks, funny pic of you or you both or whatever. Be creative.

Ask her to name three things that she would want. Tell her you will pick one of them. This way you get her something she wants while still making it something of a surprise.

There are many things that you can get her that don't cost too much money. First of all what kinds of things does she like? Maybe you could get her a CD or DVD. Or if she likes makeup there are a lot of cheap makeup sets you could buy her. Also a purse, or wallet is a good option. If you have a Five Below store near you there are a bunch of things you could get there too all for $5 or under.

Do you know what her home looks like? It might be a good idea for you to buy her something for her house because that would probably mean more to her than just buying something which you could have given to anybody at all. If the gift was tailored to her house, she can therefore be sure that the gift was aimed at her rather than at anybody that you might have bought a gift for. Perhaps you should agree on a price limit that you will be able to go up to with your friend so that you won't spend far too much or far too little on her.
