Our best friends and loved ones are always there for us in the best of times (like when you finally get that job promotion) and the worst of times (when your ex breaks your heart for the fifth time in a year—been there). But when you live in different places, showing your besties how much you care can be difficult. As much as we wish that FaceTime calls and Insta DMs can suffice, sometimes adding a little bit more love into the typical routine, AKA giving them a fab gift, is necessary.

This can mean sending them a beautiful bouquet of flowers, a delicious box of chocolates, or a mini gift set of their fav beauty brand. No matter what route you take, you can rest easy knowing that the action alone will put a well-deserved smile on their face. We get that searching for the best gift for your best friend or loved one can be tough; there’s so much they deserve, it’s nearly impossible to choose what to send. So, to make it a little easier on you and to expedite the process so that the goodies can be delivered ASAP, we rounded up some cheap gift ideas for your friends and loved ones that will undoubtedly brighten their day.

There’s no better surprise than a visit, after all.
