Whether it's $300 or $600, not sure yet but I think I will just put it in the bank if it's $300

$600 I will have to go shopping-lol But who knows

Please Brian, whatever you do, don't pay bills-lol Just treat yourself to something since it is a unplanned cash flow.

I'd like to go crazy with it in Sephora and the Yankee Candle Store.

Reality? Pay bills and put the rest (if there's any left) away. Being a grown up can really stink sometimes :lol:

I totally forgot about the rebate check thing until my roommate reminded me earlier this evening. Woo hoo!

I'm going to use the money to help pay the rent and a few bills. Money is tight right now, so this money will help while I look for more work.

I'll bank most of mine but what kind of SO memeber would I be if I didn't use some of it to by Sitcom DVDs. I wanna get Judge Judy and when the next SHOUT! release of The Adv. Of Ozzie and Harriet comes out I'm gonna get that too!:)

I might have spent it on something, because I kept hearing about how I'd be getting $600. Then I came across this rebate calculator, and then found that I'd just be getting $300.

I'm not going to spend it on anything. Not a damn penny.

I will probably spend some of it on vacation this summer. Maybe pay my bills and utilities. I'm going to keep most of it into my bank account mainly.

If you made over $3000 last yr and you filed a tax return then you get one. But if you go over a certain income bracket or if you didn't file a tax return then you don't get a rebate.

The $600 was for you to TREAT yourself to smething-lol And even if you did pay bills u should have took some of it and bought yourself something. I had thought about paying off my American express with the $600 but I just didn't want to, I rather take the rebate check and use it on something I want and just pay bills out of my regular paycheck
