Anyhow, I'm telling you that to lead into this question - do you know what about the cultural fit isn't going well? All of us are bad cultural fits for some organization or another, but if you're getting that consistently, start looking bigger picture about yourself, and also the types of organizations you're looking to work with. There's going to be a pattern somewhere.
If this is happening with multiple interviews and organizations of various size and type, your best bet is to try and identify the factor and see if there's something you can change about yourself to whatever degree that's acceptable to you and/or possible. If you're primarily applying to the same kinds of organizations (let's say small tech startups in the bay area, just to give an example), maybe you'd be happier or more successful looking at a different industry/size/location.
At any rate, the $249 is still deductible from taxes.
