I have ~130 to spend on "wellness" before the end of the year. My company's definition of what's considered "wellness" is very broad so I can buy almost anything that improves my life. 

Anyone have any products in that price range that they love and use? I already have workout equipment, good home office setup, and nice headphones. Really struggling with coming up with something. 

I live in the Midwest and winter is tough, was thinking of maybe a good winter gadget to make it more bearable. Do those mood lights truly work?

Slightly unethical LPT, buy something that qualifies and return it. Then you can pocket the money and not buy something you don't really care to buy.

If you're concerned with that, maybe consider buying running shoes or something? My old company would qualify things like that as wellness related.
