    Default Tax Refund?

    Well, I am hoping for a half decent tax refund this year. As some of you know, I am in the credit card challenge and working on paying off my last cc. I am going to be a good girl and put it all on my credit card. Who else is getting a refund and what are your plans?

    We're aren't. This will be the first year we owe Uncle Sam. But, each time we got a refund we used it to pay off debt. So, good luck!

    It's sitting in our savings account. First time in a long time we got a refund. If we hadn't already paid off our CC's it would definitely have been used for that. Keep up the great work Shell.

    I haven't had our taxes done yet, I have an appointment next Wed. I'm hoping for a nice refund, we haven't had a refund in years. This is the first full year in the last 22 that I haven't worked outside of the home. If we do get a refund, it will go towards paying off our cc and some in the savings.

    No refund this year for the first time in several years. Dave's unemployment really screwed that up. We owe $322

    We already got our refund and used it to pay off 2 credit cards, pay property taxes and pay down some other bills. We also did some stocking up on some great grocery deals!

    We haven't done ours yet because I know we owe, so it won't be done until the very last day.

    We already received our refund, it was quite large and we used it to pay off ALL of our bills except our van payment and we only have about a year on it, but all of our debts were paid off, and we also did some work on our vehicles, stocked up on some groceries and also we started a savings account into which we put a 20% of our refund, plus we each got a little "mad" money.
    Such good feelings to have all the bills paid off, and also to have, a bit in savings.....

    We're getting back a big return this year and we're planning to start finishing off our upstairs starting with the bathroom, since that will be the most expensive to do.
