I've also used the tactic to get vendors to lower price

Hey Mr. Vendor I can approve myself anything 5K or less, anything over
5K has to go to higher management and it could take 6 weeks or not get
approved.  If you'll lower the price from 5,495 to 4995 I'll get a PO
out today   <vbg>

Easy,

You don't ask for all developers in one chunk.  You ask one at a time.
No 
one turns down a $59 expense.  However, if they have to get a manager to

sign off on any expense over $x then piecemeal it.

An IBMer told me of one person who managed to expense a mainframe this 
way.

Accounting has respect for those who can play the game.
