House chores, babysitting...anything...try and find a way. I could come up with a bunch of home made ideas but you'd most likely find most of them corny. So here's what I suggest.
REMEMBER-you're gonna need atleast a LITTLE money to make something nice. You can't make SOMETHING from NOTHING.
H & M has some really great stuff. I mean really, super, cute stuff! If you go to their accesories section, they have tons of beautiful chandelier earrings and gloves and belts and hairclips! They're all really cheap like 3-5 dollars! A combination of coordinating accesories would be the cutest! Hopefully you have an H & M near you.
Worse comes to worse...and you REALLY can't buy something for her...I'd say make cookies if you can bake... or make a 'movie' basket with her fav. candy, popcorn, and maybe one or two movies she likes.
(Buying movies still costs money...but there's some cheap bargains for good movies out there...try Walmart/Target).

If you like that idea, go to the store and find a really cute shirt on the clearance rack. What you should do once you find one you like is cut off the sleeves if it has any, and do something creative with the body of it. Then, sew the botton of the shirt together so that the stuff doesn't fall out of the bottom. Depending on what's on the shirt, you might not want to decorate it, but if you do, you can use pretty much anything... sparkles, glitter, buttons, shapries... whatever. I made a purse like this myself actually, and it's pretty awesome-looking. [ devilspawn_666's advice column | Ask devilspawn_666 A Question ]

Spray stuff, nail polish, lipgloss stuff...if this doesn't describe her personality, write me a personal message, and maybe I can come up w/ better ideas! Good luck and I hope I helped!
