Gym memberships, sports leagues, and an apple watch are all things I've used it for.

I love snowboarding but unfortunately the fund calls out skiing equipment and passes as not reimburseable. Atleast when I check last year.

Didn’t see this response until 4 weeks later...that’s unfortunate. The sports league is a good tip. Maybe I’ll actually join a DC kickball league after a few years of talking about it.
