Tax rebate checks

Whatever you buy, please try to spend your $ at a local business or on one of the few products still made in the USA!

No idea what I'm buying, but I'm sure it will involve at least one pair of footwear!

We will do that. My husband wants to hit the Guitar Center here and buy a guitar. I would like to spend mine on some clothes but the problem is, most stuff is made in China or other countries. And I think even Walmart's clothing now is not made here in the USA am I correct?

I think you'd be hard pressed to find anything in Walmart truly made on American soil. Gotta watch for people who's distribution network means they buy it somewhere in the US, but the reality is that the actual product was manufactured in another country. Creative advertising.

Wal-mart is the leader in selling things not made in the US and not paying workers a living wage! :angry:

Another good reason to use direct deposit...especially if your last 2 digits start with "9".

Crap, May 16th for me. Well mine is going to ease the real estate crisis.

I know, my son works there. He is making $8.50 an hour and works fulltime there. He works overnite with several other guys sweeping and waxing the floors with that big buffer.

Ocean Lover, the direct deposit payments start Monday now. And all will be done by May 2nd. They are doing them earlier. And the paper checks will start going out on the 9th instead of the 16th.

Well, I'm beginning to wonder if MSN and the local and national news knew what they were talking about where the tax rebates are concerned. They said all would be directed deposited by the 2nd. Haven't seen mine yet.

But when you go to the IRS.GOV site they are showing 00 through 20 by the 2nd and ours falling into the group to be deposited by the 9th. They are not showing them being done earlier.

So I'm beginning to think someone got misinformed about that.

Mine was deposited on Monday!

I got mine on Monday too. Not sure what to spend it on yet

This link will help determine how much you should get.

I'm starting to think I really am going to spend it on gas!

I'll be spending mine, what ever it is, on moving expenses!

I know they are going by the last two digits of a person's SSN. However, the IRS.GOV site shows SSN #00 through 20 to be deposited by the second and then #21 I think through 75 by the 9th. We fall in that category. So we probably won't see ours until next week. And we do qualify. I would think the IRS site would be more accurate than some report on MSN or the local and national news.

Hellooo, Lady D...it's run by the government.

Ocean Lover, I know what you mean. I hope we will get ours. I'm beginning to wonder now if I put our social security numbers on the tax form. I always have in the past and think I recall doing so this time of course. But the rough draft I have is just in pencil and of course I didn't fill all of that out. But I just read that if you did not include that on your form you won't get the tax rebate. They don't include it on the label anymore.

I don't think you can file without it! Don't worry it's coming.

I wish they'd just taken that amount off what I had to pay.

So let's see if I understand this...to keep our economy chugging along we borrow more money from China. We are encouraged to go out and buy stuff, most of which came from China. Whose economy is being stimulated here?

I'm starting to think I really am going to spend it on gas!

You probably already have! Due to rising gas prices, they estimate Americans have already spent 1/3 of the $150 billion in rebates!

Definitely agree that it would have saved lots of time and $ if you could have just deducted your stimulus rebate from the amount to be paid!

It is interesting that over-spending is what has led to the economic problems of the USA, yet, the gov't issues checks of borrowed money, encouraging us to spend even more. Here is a suggestion, save the money, or pay down some credit cards.

Great advice for most, but since all my credit cards are paid off and I already send 8% of my paycheck to a savings account I think I can buy some purple shoes!

No, no, no....now a great time to BUY!
