I think it would be great to have a "what are you going to do with your federal tax relief check"????

Just an idea.

Wish I could fund it - but my check hasn't gotten here yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! smile

Thanks

I havent gotten mine yet either rae. I called the bank this morning to see
if I had a direct deposit but not yet. I read that most will be deposited on Friday.

It's the fun that counts and time spent together! But of course it's always more fun to leave a WINNER!!! I'm sure we will hit the land based as well for a little action.

NoLuckNeeded.com suggests everyone SAVE their money
and not buy crap you do not need, or gamble it
(like I will do) smile

Good suggestion TDTAT! Are you going to practice what you preach? You can't tell us you won't use ANY of your stimulus check on gambling or something extra!!!! smile

REMEMBER that companies are spending BILLIONS
of advertising dollars on TV to get you to buy
stuff.. Do you really need a new gas guzzling car
or a new whirlpool? Do not fall for the bait people..

SAVE YOUR MONEY.. I will not buy too much crap but I may
gamble as that is entertainment for me smile

today and no casino will take silver bars smile
Just an idea.. investing is saving too

You do make an EXCELLENT POINT, TDTAT!!! If you need it to pay bills then use it that way, if you really need something that you have had to put off, then use it that way. And "IF" you can afford some entertainment, WELL then USE IT THAT WAY!!! Just be responsible and enjoy the opportunity to have a little extra!!!!

Just do not buy crap because a TV commercial convinced you to.. smile

smile Note: I do not consider enjoying life crap... If you buy
something, make sure it will increase your life's pleasure... then
it is definately worth it.

BUT Pay bills FIRST!! smile
