How are you Spending Your Stimulus Check?
Posted by: Stuart in Blogroll, Uncategorized, free money, general, irs, life, money, people, random, stimulus check
The Economic stimulus payments began to roll out this week.
I haven’t decided yet. With a wife and 4 kids I get lots of stimuli bling. Though, we’ll probably do something responsible with it… like feed our rugrats. You know, feeding kids is so overrated. They just eat and grow, so you’re always having to buy more food, bigger clothes and diapers. And yes, I’m kidding. We don’t feed our kids, we just let them graze in the back yard.
So how are you going to spend your government stimulus check?
Need any suggestions, cruise over to this blog on just that subject:

How much do you get?

Stuart,
I got this from a friend this morning:
Did you get your check?
As you may have heard, each of us will be getting a tax rebate
check to stimulate the economy.
If we spend that money at Wal-Mart, all the money will go to China .
If we spend it on gasoline, it will go to the Arabs.
If we purchase a computer, it will go to India .
If we purchase fruits and vegetables it will go to Honduras and Guatemala .
If we purchase a good car it will go to Japan .
If we purchase useless stuff it will go to Taiwan and none of it will help the American economy.
We need to keep that money here in America . The only way to keep
that money here at home is to spend it at yard sales , since those
are the only businesses left owned by Americans !!
I think I’m having a garage sale soon ;-).
Let me know when you get your check!!
Personally, I think we have some bills to pay and we are hoping to buy a propane stove to keep us warm next winter!
I hope this gives you a few more ideas on how to spend your check!
