You'll get a lot of use out of it, won't have to hear "Why don't you ever use the pedal I bought you?" and you won't be tempted to flip it.

Not a tuner lol, i'd like to stay clear of ehx in general, espcially the nano series, and i've retired being a ninja as a whole

An EHX Memory Toy is about 80 bucks, I know you said you're trying to steer clear of EHX, but they really sound awesome.
My fuzz tastes lately lean towards Tone Machine clones, you could always get a Dano French Toast for 40 bucks, and still have 40 more for something else
Digitech Hyperphase?

I saw an EQD Monarch on B/S/T recently for $100. I'd kick in the extra $20 and get that shit!

Already have a Fuck, I think in terms of od im good now, and b/s/t is out of the question, she wants it to be a suprise and she couldnt manage a deal on ILF. I guess my needs are too picky ;__;

Noisemaker makes some cool stuff, you could probably find some sort of fuzz/od that you'd like

I've got a Noise Invaders myself, love it.

this was the first thing that popped in my head. Square wave is lovely, and there are a couple 50$ pedals like the a-ok boost and donner party.
