I like the way you and lucidian think. Here are my top-10s that haven't already been mentioned.

  • hot date - especially if you have steady romantic relationship(s) but haven't done this recently
  • a dog
  • phone call to someone you've kinda lost touch with and don't want to
  • canoe trip, or whatever other outdoor/nature experience appeals
  • flight lesson - regardless of lack of desire to actually become a pilot, I just like flying in a small plane

Obviously lots of the above is of highly variable value depending on your personality.

A dog is going to cost you a lot more than one or two hundred dollars.
