What do you moms do for YOU

My best friend is going to be a mommy this sept and the shower is coming up.  Along with all the baby stuff, I want to give her some items that are for HER.  What do you ladies find that you use often for yourselves, or maybe even rarely but really appreciate/enjoy?  I am looking for things that in total will add up to less than $50 (I am buying her her carseat after all and times are tough)

A gift card to a photo site like shutterfly would be a great gift.? Or itunes gift cards.??

When I had my babies I didn't really pamper myself (I was so tired) but I would have loved gc to local places for take out.  That would have helped a ton

I put together a basket with scented bubble bath, lotions, body spray, etc. for my neighbor. 

A gift certificate for a nice pedicure would be about $50.

Right after I had dd I appreciated the things that cost nothing the most.  Like when my mom came over and did my laundry, or my SIL came over to clean for me and let me nap while they took care of the baby.

I saw no point in doing my nails when they would just be covered with poop 5 minutes later!
