stimulated at last

Published May. 16, 2008

Well, I finally got my stimulus check… Annoyed because even though I am the only breadwinner my DH is listed first on the taxes and his last two digits are way up there… If I was listed first would have gotten it weeks ago. Oh well, no worries.

I’m gonna run out and spend it before the government realizes it doesn’t have the funds to cover it…

Don’t worry; I’m not spending it at ChinaMart… Buying a 40ft ladder (Made in the USA), Hardiplank siding (Also made in the USA) and some paint (I’ll have to double check and make sure it’s made here as well).

Happy Friday…

Mine will not warm my checking account for long. I need new glasses ($300+); I just put the car in the shop for a long-needed tune-up ($210); and the car air conditioner is out again (?? $). So I'm about even.

aahh dont skimp on ladders....buy good ones...you can use them forever or resell them when you dont need them...cheap ladders are dangerous...esp for the big mon

Right now I am living off my stimulus until the National Guard pays us for the last week of my hubby's pay..

Congrats to you!!! I was stimulated last Friday and I still don't know what to do with it yet (I am aware that I can save it). However, I did want to do something fun for me and the hubby. *shrugs* we'll figure something out. I guess the rest will be saved.

If the limits are high on your credit cards and especially if you have had the accounts for a while, it is better for your credit to keep the accounts open and not use the cards. If you close the accounts it reduces your available credit limit and lowers your credit score. Just something to think about.

good for you willow... i would have to get about 20 stimulus checks to completely pay off our credit cards!! :) but the 1500 will put a dent in it, at least.

OldRebel - definitely will do... Also need to make sure DH life insurance is paid up before he starts! LOL... J/K (kind of)

A good ladder is a good investment. be sure to lock it up as they have a tendency to walk away from your home if seen. ;)

OldRebel - true about the ladder - especially that my DH is a big guy -6'4" and over the weight limit on most ladders - thus we are buying a very expensive one... But it is cheaper than paying someone else to do it...

Mine finally posted to my account this morning. I love direct deposit and on-line banking. :)
