Meaning is not a budget item. That's the whole thing. People act like meaningful gifts require a certain threshold of spend, and it's just not true. The most meaningful gift I ever received was a photocopy of a letter someone had saved from a conversation we'd had years before, folded into a card. Cost nothing. The least meaningful was something that arrived in a very nice box and felt like it was bought for a stranger. The difference was never the money. The difference was always whether the person was actually thinking about you when they chose it.
Thirty dollars is more than enough. You just have to spend it on the right thing.
