I've decided I'm doing 2 things with it. I'll be getting $600, so $300 will go into my Suze Orman Save Yourself (emergency) fund and the other $300 I will "invest" in myself by buying a used treadmill or elliptical machine. Anything left over from that will go to re-stocking the pantry.

Summer clothes for my daughter (what I had saved I had to use for my car repair) and the rest toward Credit Cards.

I am not sure what we are going to do with it. I think we will be getting 1500$. The tenative plan is to save it.

ours will be going toward our vacation.

we have ours and have done some home improvements, paid some debt, and will put the rest towards the EF

We will put whatever we need to towards our $1000 Emergency Fund, another part towards our son's college tests (about $300), save part of it so we can do a prebuy w/ our propane when it's offered in the summer, and then should take care of almost all of it. If however, there's just a little bit left, it will go towards paying down our debt. I wish we were at the point in which we could save it, but this will help us get there eventually.

$500 will be going to our summer vacation fund and the rest will go directly to CC to get out of debt.

**missyali** · 02-27-2008, 02:22 PM

I think I'm looking at $1800. My daughter needs a new bed ~ maybe $300. The rest will go on credit card debt.

We just refinanced our home for a lower rate and borrowed a little extra. With our tax refund and the extra we borrowed we should be able to get a good used car. The rest will be saved and added to from Ebay and yard sale money until we have enough to do some more home repairs. The car I own now will be given to my son to drive back and forth to college.
