🗂️Keep in Mind You Can Spend Down Your FSA With Your Amazon Account

[_=*Croft*=_]

Your flexible spending account (FSA) funds expire tomorrow (or shortly thereafter if you have a rollover period—check with your employer on that). This means it's time to scan your medicine cabinet, make a list of anything you need to stock up on, and click "add to cart."

The FSA store is an obvious choice for making the most of your remaining funds, but you can also turn to your go-to retail giants. Amazon, Target, Walgreens, and more all offer a dedicated FSA/HSA Shop to help you find eligible items quickly.

How to shop FSA-eligible items on Amazon​

Here's how you can take advantage of Amazon's FSA-eligible items before the end of the year.

1. Visit Amazon's FSA Store at amazon.com/fsa

2. Look for the "FSA/HSA Eligible" label on product listings

3. Use the FSA/HSA filter in search results

4. Pay with your FSA debit card at checkout

Similarly, Target has an FSA filter in their healthcare section, and pharmacies like CVS and Walgreens have dedicated online FSA shops.

What to buy with your remaining FSA funds​

Many over-the-counter medications and health items are FSA-eligible, including cold medicine, bandages, dental care products, menstrual products, and more. You can also grab:

• 
  First aid supplies (bandages, antibiotic ointment)
  
  
• 
  Over-the-counter medications
  
  
• 
  Contact lenses and solutions
  
  
• 
  Reading glasses
  
  
• 
  Sunscreen
  
  
• 
  Pain relievers
  
  
• 
  Blood pressure monitors
  
  
• 
  COVID-19 tests
  

Again, most FSA plans require you to spend funds by December 31, though some offer grace periods. Check with your plan administrator for specific deadlines. Just make sure to save receipts for all FSA purchases in case you need to verify eligibility with your plan administrator after paying.
