A good, supportive pillow: You use it every day and it can help prevent neck issues. Most people keep pillows for quite a long time anyway, so if you find one you like, why not spend more on something that you really like?

A good monitor: I upgraded to a really big and high resolution monitor about a half a year ago and it has made a huge difference. Before I was experiencing really bad eye strain and it is gone now. I have more space to do my work, which has increased my productivity, too.

Good coffee: My morning coffee makes me happy. I don't usually spend a ton on coffee, but I do like to get decent, whole-bean coffee. About once a month I will treat myself to some really nice, fresh coffee beans. I live by a roaster and can get it for a good price and super fresh.

What’s your favorite coffee, at the moment? We just got some Dean’s Beans (Sumatra French Roast) and my wife says it’s the best she’s ever had. I quite like it, as well.

Not OP, but I do like coffee.

I like to have one or two monthly “roaster’s choice” subscriptions. This way, I get to try something a little different every few weeks.

I’ve enjoyed Black and White, Intelligentsia, and Sey so far.
