Hey, I don't have a lot of money either, but I would plan it way in advance so she would be able to have a nice anniversary. It doesn't have to be expensive, just a day for her. That's all. Hell, I wouldn't want a sack chasing woman anyway. Like you said it's the thought behind it, not the price. Doing it the day of though? To me that's not cool. I even think a nice "horse & carriage" ride through downtown on a cold day (dress warm of course) so the two of you can snuggle would be really nice. Those are not expensive at all.
The fact is she wants to spend time with you... Not to sound arrogant, but the gift of quality time is more important to me than a size 10XXX $5 sweatshirt.

For my husband's gifts, I connect with something I know he would enjoy--usually through his stomach... So, I cook him a large dinner. For Christmas, we have developed a running joke, I purchase superior cuts of "exotic meat" and I cook it for him. I want to see if he, as a veterinarian would eat it. More often than not, he does...

Let's just say some of these items tastes like chicken...
