Well, we decided to save it for now instead of blowing it.

That's where mine was deposited also. So I just left it there.

Same here...

But I'm sure it will slowly be used on other future expenses or in the event of an emergency.

With the economy the way it is, the real purpose of that refund may never be used as the government experts thought...




Sorry George W.... but looks like that Stimulus Package may just be stimulating U.S. savings accounts instead...

Spent it last week. Asked my youngest daughter what she wanted for her 21st birthday. She wanted to see Disney World as she is our only one who has never been there. She, the wife, and I spent 3 days there and spent 2 nites at the All Star Music resort. We had a ball! Then we spent the rest of the week visiting my sister in Fort Pierce. Except for the smoke from the wild fires blowing around, the weather was much nicer than in March. I would say it was money well spent!

I'd love to see them installed on the HHR!

We spent ours already - TV blew up so we bought a new 52", plus all the stuff we're doing to the HHR. I feel like we're trying to revive the economy ourselves
