eta: I am referring to the tax rebate from the Gov't ($600/$1200) - not the annual refund during tax time

my thoughts exactly

we were hoping to spend our taxes on some projects on the house... but being that we just tallied up our credit card debt and we're looking at 19 grand - i'm thinking just about everything needs to go towards bills Chat Icon

I haven't looked into this yet.

If it is, I'll buy a cup of coffee..and maybe a scone.

Re: So what are you going to spend your tax rebate on?

Didn't I read it is $1,200 for a couple and then $300 PER child?
We will probably use it for spending money for our vacation this summer.

This is still tentative. If it actually goes through, we will probably use the money for home improvements.

Be careful, the article says you aren't eligible for the rebate if a couple makes more than $150,000. fyi
