Any suggestions?
All current employees will be able to reimburse up to $500 worth of “office equipment”. The parameters for “Office equipment” are defined as a desk, chair, printer, headphone/set, mouse/pad, or lamp.
I don't need anything

your printer isn’t color, is it?
You can also get something for $500, get reimbursed, and then return the thing you bought for cash. But I’m not your attorney and can’t advise you to actually do this.

01/27/2021, 6:53 PMI held out for a long time for reasons, but I have to say the latest Apple Airpods with noisecanceling jazz are probably the best consumer product I’ve purchased after an iPhone. Seems silly because they’re just earbuds, but they are just kind of magically awesome in ways that are hard to explain or justify when spending your own money.

@white-airline-67948 Have you tried $25 bluetooth headphones from amazon? They have the same little rubbery earcups, and they’re 1/10th of the price

01/27/2021, 6:55 PMI have… the thing I like about airpods is how seamlessly they work with all my other i-devices, plus the amplification setting is super nice when out for a run or other situations where you actually want to hear more of the surrounding environment.
Basically the reasons I resisted for so long was bc so many cheaper alternatives exist. But then I tried them and was like “oh, I see.” If you’re the type of person who uses an Android phone bc why on earth would you spend more for an iPhone, then airpods are probably not worth it for you. But I really value the extra polish.

Got 2 lamps, wireless trackball mouse for lydia, and 2 sets of headphones bc renee wasn’t sure which.
Still $169 to blow. Seems like only remaining plausible categories are desk and chair?

Maybe the last item is a “buy and refund”
