Getting laid off tomorrow. What should I spend my FSA on?

I have gotten notification from HR that my employment will be officially terminated as of midnight tonight. I kept forgetting about my FSA card so I've barely spent any money from it. None of my prescriptions are close, I can't get an eye exam today (but I can buy frames, which I might do), and I already have tons of medical supplies I need for the time being. I think my remaining balance is around $400. Outside eyeglass frames and ibuprofen, what are some things I could spend on in a rush? Update: Thanks for all your suggestions. I got a notification I was being cut off at 5pm, not midnight as I had previously thought. I ran out to Costco and got a couple pairs of eyeglass frames and some medical supplies. The remainder went to an Amazon FSA-only order. In the end, my grand total was less than a dollar short of my balance. Success! submitted by /u/pewpewlefty to r/personalfinance [link] [comments]
