You've learned an $80 lesson on why not to loan money. Short of spending hundreds or thousands of dollars there is nothing you can do except learn that lesson.

$80 is not too small for small claims court. Therefore, you can represent yourself and sue her for t he $80 and court costs (cost of filing suit). You should be evidence of the loan (cancelled check, e-mails, texts) and witnesses.
