(2/16/09) When/if you get a tax refund this year, what will you do with it?

[Randy_the_Hack]

This week's poll: When/if you get a tax refund this year, what will you do with it?

If you've not noticed... it's that time of year again...

(Sorry guys... but I would really like some poll ideas from you all)

Put it into a wonderful CD at the credit union that's currently earning a whopping 1.75%

My dimunitive tax refund from the sucky State of Kansas is being held by the illustrious Democrat governor due to her inability to balance the budget of a pissant state that can't even pave the vast majority of it's roads, yet is in the top 15 most taxed places in the USA. The governess refuses to pay tax refunds until she can figure out the budget.

But I'm not bitter...

IF we get a refund we'll use it to pay for ... what else but ...
TAXES! Real estate type. Thus I picked pay bills.

Since I ended up blowing the money I had for my transmission, that's what I'm using it for.

Whatever I get go's to the savings, got a DTR in college that we are paying for. That is if they pay us and don't share the wealth with those less fortunate.

I really don't get a refund and don't want to.

I have my taxes figured so that I either get very little back every year or I pay a small amount.

I'm not going to give the government an intrest free loan for a year. IT'S MY MONEY! I want to have use of it ALL year.

If you get back $3,000 in federal taxes, then you are letting them have $250 a month of your money for free. I'd rather put that money in a savings account and use it when I need it even if it doesn't earn hardly any interest.

If we do get something, then I would like to upgrade the tires on the truck, but that will be third in line behind getting a new set of tires on the wife's Envoy (which needs them), and getting my Smith & Wesson M&P 9mm and the wife's Taurus .357 mag revolver with rubber grips.

 

[Dieseldad97]

I voted paying bills. I'm using whatever we get back on my Harley insurance. At $1200 per year I need a refund.

I am in about the same boat as you , last year we had a basic wash, it was owe one about $200 dollars and get a refund of $184. So it was a good thing making the fed wait unitl april 15 for his little bit.

Getting some tires and glow's for the old girl.

cwq21 has got the idea. My bosses always used to think i was crazy. Why give the government an interest free loan for a year when i could make good use of that money on my own.
