    €250 ecovouchers from work. This is a programme from the Belgian government to encourage employees to buy 'green' products, but it's optional, so I cannot count on it every year. This year they decided to do them, again (so far, they have every year, but, you know, optional).

    I used them to pay for a new bike (with my and dh's vouchers from last year). Added benefit: if I cycle to work, the re-imbursement per km will go up from €0,15 (car) to €0,23 (bicycle), and the new amount is completely untaxed, where the car re-imbursement was taxed if over €350 per year. The bicycle will have paid for itself in nine months, and I will gain money every time I cycle after that :)
