My employer has this "point" bank where we receive points if someone (boss, coworker, other management) thinks we've done a good job, he or she can award us points. Each point is the equivalent to 1 US Dollar. Last year, I used 500 points to buy XMas gifts and it really came in handy.
I currently have 562 points and I want to buy something for myself because I've been feeling semi "empty" lately. Treating myself on my company's dime seems like it might make me feel better. I listed a few things below that I kind of had my eye on:
- Flip or Aiptek mini camcorder (179 - 198 points)
- Propane Grill (384 - 417 points)
- Roomba Vacuum (385 - 418 points)
- Elliptical Trainer (425 points)
- Color laser printer (407 - 449 points)
- 26" Samsung LCD TV (467 points)
- GPS Unit - Garmin or Sonocaddie (220 - 468 points)
- $500 Destination Giftcard - Travelocity, Carnival Cruises, etc...
- $550 AmEx Gift Card
I'm leaning towards a color laser printer or a GPS. What do you think I should get? Keep in mind my points also have to pay for shipping and handling. It's kind of dumb, but hey... if I get $450 worth of electronics and all I have to pay for is shipping + taxes, then, I think it's worth it!
