bingo.

i don't get why everyone's so afraid to give a polite "thanks, but I can't make it."

that's all that good manners requires. no explanation is owed. nor do you need to send a gift.

Right before it switched places with "give", which became a noun. For example, Oprah's Big Give.

Polite, but direct is always the best approach.
Thanks for the invite, but I can't make it.

That should do it !
