Default Need help with Flex Spending Acct

I have about $300 to spend on my Flex Spending Acct (health care reimbursement stuff), which I need to spend TODAY because today is my last day at my job. I need some advise as to what to do with this money. If I dont have a receipt dated today, I'll lose the full amount.

Thanks.

Generally, humidifiers and vaporizers are covered. You might want to buy a nice humidifier and re-sell it on eBay or something. Maybe a Venta Airwasher?

Unfortunately, given the rules governing a FSA, a humidifier is about as baller as you can get.

It might cover massages. A lot of massage places will let you buy a set of massages at once at a discount, and schedule them later.

Contact lenses stuff or a new pair of glasses. Load up on OTC meds.
