Price is Right?

Flex Spending… Sounded like such a fantastic idea when I signed up for! I herd so many wonderful things about it, and I here I am with a surplus of $250.17 ( if you do not understand what a ‘surplus’ is watch the Office episode where Michael is explained what it is like a two year old! It is also the same episode where Dwight secretly marries Angela, one of my favorites!) I was worried that I had used all of it, from when I was in the hospital back in July for “Helga” (my unwanted cyst that causes way too much pain but they will not remove!!!) so I was super frugal when it came to using that account. I paid a lot of it upfront in case I needed it for an emergency! Well here I am stuck with having to spend all this money by midnight tonight!


I decided to go on a shopping spree as one might call it last night… I still have $88 left to spend. UGH! I feel as though I am being super wasteful and buying careless things! Granite I always needed a first aid kit for my car and other items, but still! I was online last night with my roommate and we found a list of things my account covers. Here are few items that I m ay possibly look into:


Eye Patch – Who wouldn’t want one? They are the coolest things out there!


Artificial Limbs- Just in case that one day when do some serious damage to myself. I am a klutz, and it is bound to happen sooner or later!


Incontinence Products- My dad is getting old, and Depends should be in the near future… :P


Wart Removal Medications- What more can I say?


Urinary Pain Relief- It is always nice to have something laying around, however I am not too certain what or where I would get something like this.


Speech Therapy- I am not the sharpest tool in the shed, and I tend to stagger sometimes



Wheelchair- One of these days I may need one, and like Boy Scouts always said, it is better to be prepared!


Pregnancy Tests- My roommate and I thought it would be neat to have closet just full of them, and I can always give them away as wedding presents! WATCH OUT!


Artificial Teeth- I think that would make a wonderful Christmas Present :D


Guide Dog- I had a friend growing up who trained them and they are awesome pets! Especially for the lazy! Oh I mean blind…


Hopefully I will be able to meet my goal by midnight. I had fun last night with one of the Pharmacists trying to figure out what in my cart was not covered by my plan. I felt like I was playing the Price is Right.
