What should I spend my $400 WFH money on?

What should I spend my $400 WFH money on? 

I'm buying another monitor, but that's only $150. 

What else should I buy? I already have airpods (earphones), and I feel like spending $250 on a chair is a rip off. Any other cool home office items y'all own?

If you listen to a lot of music studio monitors or nice headphones. I went from $20 speakers to JBL LSR 305's I got used for $200 and they are amazing. The difference was absolutely mind-blowing. Edifier 1280T or 1280DB is a nice cheaper alternative at around $100-$140. For headphones I got the Sennheiser HD6XX from Massdrop for $220, also amazing

 

Agree with above, buy a chair. $250 is pretty cheap for a chair too, the nice ones will cost you.

Also a wireless keyboard & mouse is a must if you don't already have those.

buy another monitor or something to raise your laptop. Full-sized mirror for leftover money
