Budget friendly magic for a friend's trip?

[DuckMom]

I have a friend who is leaving for Disney on Friday with her two school age children. She has not been since she was in high school (20+ years ago) and is going with her entire extended family for a long-planned, long awaited trip. I know she will have a wonderful time and it will be magical. But, she is also going through a very messy, very difficult divorce. It was supposed to be finalized yesterday, but her soon to be ex decided to throw another wrench into the works. She is very upset, depressed, etc. I wanted to do something special for her on the trip, but I don't really have any ideas that are budget friendly. With Christmas coming and my freelance work cut down, I don't have a ton of extra, but I would love to do something, if anyone has any thoughts. If it matters, they are staying at Saratoga Springs in a tree house villa.
Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions!

What exactly would you be willing to spend? There are a few arrangements from Disney Florist that are somewhat inexpensive (40$ and under) and they can place the arrangement in the room upon arrival. Another suggestion is you can make bags with stuff from a dollar store/walgreens/walmart for the kids, and get a gift card for her to spend at Disney. That way she would be able to spend it how she wants and still have the thankful thoughts that you wanted her trip to go well. If you have a Sam's Club or a Bj's near you (they're running a free 60 day membership also if you don't have a membership) they have Disney gift cards for a few cents less than the Disney stores sell them for.

I'd recommend a Disney GC for extra spending money.
