There's not enough context to tell what it was referring to, Saramehr.

'You said it'd be just the thing' means that someone said "something will be just what is needed to cause/influence others to do something.

Example:

Fred: Putting in new boilers will be just the thing we need to bring in newlyweds. They'll be happy to have warm apartments for their newborns.

John: [a year later] You know those boilers, you said it'd be just the thing to get more newlyweds in our condo. I one year, not a one has signed a lease.
