Well, I didn't get my refund yet, but we already bought a treadmill and plan on using the refund money to pay it off. I also want to get us a couple of bikes so we can go bike riding this spring. The rest will go to paying off our credit cards :(
i got my federal back and it went to pay my 6 mo. car insurance and rest into savings. I am waiting on the state that will go into checking acct to pay whatever.
I was hoping to get more money back, so my plans have changed somewhat. This is my first *full* year out of college/ working full time/ etc, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I'd hoped to make a big dent in my credit card bill (glad to hear I'm not the only one), but it won't be very much, so it is going to go towards my (already planned) spring break trip.
Yes, I am a teacher... isn't it lovely to be a grown up and still get spring break?? lol My boyfriend took a week vacation and we are going to New Orleans together. His family lives there, so we're staying with them, and I have relatives there too. I am very excited (and a little nervous) about the trip, and it will be nice to have that 200 bucks to spend while we're there. You will have to give me some spare willpower before I go... must not eat benets, lattes, and other wonderful local food every day. lol
I have a month to prepare, so I will try to stock up on willpower I suppose. ;)
Enjoy your trip, Tina! It will be hard to use that willpower. New Orleans has some awesome food. Maybe you can justify having some of the local goodies if you plan to walk most of it off? Not that I'm giving you license to cheat, but just a thought.
We're going to pay off some bills and then put a little cash into our car. THEN we're going to put some up towards bdays and Xmas, stock the cupboards, and some for when Rob and I go to Chicago in May for his bday- (and hopefully to see this great stand up comic we heard about ..... ;-) )
