Long story short, I was pregnant and signed up for my benefits. Completely forgot about it bc I had the baby a few days after signing up for said benefits and FSA, I went into maternity leave and stopped having 8 hours of sleep. Anyways, I had to leave my job and today is my last day of benefits, which means today is my last day to use the FSA as well. Today is when I remembered I had the account. 500 dollars. So as anyone would do, I started filling up my Amazon cart with FSA eligible items, all good right? I caught it early right? WRONG Amazon post charges as pre authorization until they ship items. Which even tho I ordered today, my FSA won’t see it as a purchased until the day Amazon decides to ship the items. I could have bought it from the FSA store and it would’ve shown it was bought today. Why won’t they just charge when I placed the order?
TLDR: forgot I had a FSA account and could’ve used/saved 500 dollars for FSA eligible items if I didn’t buy thru Amazon.
