What Will You Do With Your Stimulus Check?
 
I saw on the news that the stimulus checks are being mailed out soon.

I should save mine - since I don't know for sure if my LTD will begin on time (first week of June) and I don't have another paycheck coming in.

I've been thinking that I might go to Costco and stock up on frozen food and non-perishables. I have an extra refrigerator/freezer in my garage that I could keep a lot of the frozen items in. I've seen frozen chicken breasts and hamburger meat at good prices when you buy in bulk. I haven't decided yet....but at the rate food and gasoline prices keep going up I think it might be a good idea.

What will you do with your check?

Gosh Kell~ Guess I'll believe it when I have it in my hot lil hands!

We haven't even talked about what we would do w/it. hmmmm.

Guess we'll just have to wait and see. :confused:

I haven't given too much thought to this either. I don't want to "count my chickens before they hatch."

However, my thinking was similar to yours HK - stock up on items.

I did entertain the thought (and it was only a thought) of getting a new TV because of all the digital TV changes coming up.

I'm going to get a tank of gas! With the change, I'll get a donut.

A donut? As in a spare tire? LOL. That is what I 1st thought of when I saw this and couldn't quite figure out why you were buying a "donut." Jeeze, I need another cup of coffee. Oh and a donut if you have enough left over.:D

If I get one, it will go for bills or maybe I'll run up a few more and it will help pay on vac for my kid.

It's going in the bank! But then again, we could use some new furniture for the deck... :Scratch-Head:

AMN, I thought the donut you were going to buy was the kind you sit on...was going to give you a hug for any problems a donut would ease:p

My DH and I are putting a pond in our yard...this will pay for all the hoses, pumps, plants, etc.

Should have hired someone to do it, but my DH likes to do projects...problem is, it takes forever!:eek:

With my half I am going to buy a rocker for the living room. :)
My wonderful DH will probably stick his half in the bank and give me a ration of ...... because I spent my share. :rolleyes:
