I won the much coveted Starlight Level B award in recognition of the hard work I put in with a difficult client. Shall I choose the $200 spa gift certificate or a pair of Bose® 201® Series V Speakers which received surprisingly good reviews? Please advise.

that depends on whether you have someone to go to the spa with.

Couples treatments are top dollar. I'd probably fly solo on this one.

+1. Or if you can get $200 in cash then buy the $199 AudioEngine speakers.

If you already have a set of speakers then go for the spa. If you are speakerless and are listening to your music off your ipod headphones then go for the speakers, Bose is better than nothing.

This guy took a red paper clip and continuously traded up until he got a house. Only took him a year too.

Pretty sure either of those somewhat boring prizes could be exchanged for something a million times better then a house.

yeah, that spa treatment should at least be worth a sexual favor or two from a female coworker

Looking at practicality. Bose speakers are way more fulfilling than a spa treatment. It'll be awesome for the 1hr that you're doing it then you will feel the exact same as when you started the day 2hrs afterwards.

Get the Bose speakers, and sell them on Amazon, or Ebay.

Spa is nice, but the speakers will last longer if you keep them, or result in cold hard cash if you sell them.

Are you cash strapped or stressed out? Sell on ebay if strapped, spa (of your choice? Happy ending?) if stressed.
