Give them a day of pampering and relaxation

This is my first suggestion because it’s the ultimate budget chameleon! (It cost cost from nothing to infinity!). You could create your own fabulous pamper day by whipping up a custom voucher and offering your skills—who knew you could be a spa magician? Or, if you’re feeling flush, why not splurge on a swanky spa day at a fancy resort?
