When I was at IBM, they gave us ~$200 to spend on office things (Buy on Demand, I think they called it). I ordered a $160 17" LCD to replace the 70 lb CRT that felt like it was giving me a sun tan. My manager called me into her office and explained that she was canceling my order, because if _I_ got that monitor, then everyone else would want one.
There was also the time my officemate decided to order supplies for the three of us. She was questioned for requisitioning 3 pens. Because she could only use one at a time.
