Rebate Checks
What do you guys plan to do with your tax rebate check? If you're not getting one are you bitter?

Re: Rebate Checks
If you're not getting one you either don't really pay taxes to begin with or you make so much that even the wealthy-loving Federal govt can't see giving you any more dinero. In either case, you shouldn't be bitter.
I'm going to pay off a credit card with mine. Which is pretty much exactly the opposite of the intent.

Re: Rebate Checks
I'm going to upgrade my kitchen appliances. Obviously the check won't pay for all of it but it will take care of a nice chunk.

Re: Rebate Checks
Going to remodel my kitchen (it's small and mostly entails a couple cabinets and knocking out a wall). Going to be doing it myself except for the plumbing (which eats up about a third of the check). Couple of new cabinets, new countertop and tons and tons of elbow grease. Probably going to exceed the rebate but not by a whole lot.

Re: Rebate Checks
And, since most of the remodel is for my wife's new busines, I am going to write a good portion of the expense off.

Re: Rebate Checks
Mine is going into my kitchen re-modeling fund. I can't wait to get rid of these cabinets and appliances. We bought a foreclosure/fixer upper five years ago and we've basically built a whole new house. The kitchen re-model is the last project and should be done in next few months. Hallelujah!

Re: Rebate Checks
This will cover most of my rent for May.
I don't plan on buying anything that I wouldn't normally.
