“This is for flowers” tells them “This is for you to buy something lovely.” “Snacks/wine/bourbon” is code for “Something comforting to consume.” “Seamless” or “Dinners this week” clearly means “Foodstuffs of any sort.” And “Ubers/Lyfts” translates to “Something to make your life slightly more convenient.” When in doubt, you can always add a “Because I can’t do this for you IRL” to it, as in, “Because I can’t be there to do X for you, use this to pay for Y.”
