$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

upon learning that this money should be hitting my bank account i immediately went to ebay and started pricing guitars i don't need.

that's what bushie is counting on you to do.

i dont think i got mine yet
i did get my ny state refund yesterday though

Maybe I should put my imaginary $600 towards an imaginary down payment on the half-million dollar studio condo I'll never be able to afford. THE AMERICAN DREAM RITE!

that's what bushie is counting on you to do.

yeah i know. but it still seems better than my original plan of stimulating the economy a half gram at a time.

i just gave 500 of it to my credit card company. OOOH YEAH

i don't like the silver hardware but i like the black on black pickguard and i really regret selling my jaguar.

I got my money and bought a ticket to Seatlle.

fuck it, i'm blowing it on pizza.

i'm spending mine on GASOLINE

1200! Another great reason to be married (and vote Republican!). And not even be an American!

definitely hide it from your spouse like mrs. que did.

spending it on gas will ensure it reaches terrorist countires more quickly than my heroin plan. and yet it's me that'd be breaking the law. go figure.

xpost bell labs booooooooooo^^^^^

I'm spending mine on a fez monkey and a set of crayons.

i'm spending mine on GASOLINE

Probably a more sound investment than anything else out there.

whree the fuck is my money

i might spend my $600 on taliban-sourced afghan heroin just to spite the US govt.

When the Bush regime paid out that $300 stimulus years ago, at least one person drew up a list of deserving charities standing in opposition to the Prez's agenda. Has anyone done anything like that this time around?

i want a guitar too... probably an awful idea but i WANT one!

mine will go to tax debt.

yaaaaay.

haha I have a coworker whose $7000 refund AND his $2400 stimulus is all going right back into the IRS to pay off 2006

I didn't make enough last year to get the $$$. I am incredible.

Mine should be here by now, right? My and the wife's SS numbers are passed by now, and we got direct deposit last time we got a refund - and paid this year by direct deduction. I have no idea where my loot is.

fuck it, i'm getting a 360 and gta4.

YEAH except add another $300 for baby. woo!

bought tickets for ATL/CHI trip in june/july.

bought an eeePC

didn't even really need one, but the "want" has stayed steady as the bank account has waxed and waned, so i figured it was a legit non-impulse buy.

ATLxor brodown imminent

Cali refund + fed refund - amt owed on last year's late filing = $6K all in joint acct for furniture & groceries prob. No $600 rebate tho.

digital slr, thank you very much.

come onnnnnnnnnnn, iRS

yeah seriously! my cc payment was due today and i kind of just assumed i would have it by now so i paid too much.

My tax guy didn't have my back. I wasn't getting a refund this year, and he didn't ask my banking details for the $600 to be direct deposited, so I have to wait for the check next month. I had about five other reasons to start looking for a new tax guy anyway.

If filing or preparation fees were deducted from your 2007 Refund or you received a rapid refund, you will be receiving a check instead of a direct deposit. Please see the Paper Check section of the Payment Schedule.

would this apply if you filed through turbotax or something? they didn't deduct fees from my refund, i just used them to free efile...

this is so frustrating, i keep getting this message from https://sa2.www4.irs.gov/irfof/IRServlet?app=IRACTC
