With tax time here, share your favorite right off?

I usually do clothing, gas, oil changes, lunch & dinner, tools.

Some people like MikeofAustin could probably right off internet service fees.

Anyone else know any to help out us here at T-Net?

This is just the office. But this year I'll also be writing off the deductible for the insurance for getting a new roof after the hail storm (about 1.7k there).

If I was an S or C corp, I'd even write off some of my trips to the local tavern, but I'm not.

I look back to the past and realize that I could have written off home depot material to fix the fence, sink, etc.
