We're in the Money!

Has anyone else received their one-time refund yet?  Thomas went to the bank on Friday and came home with the pleasant information that not only had ours been deposited, but that it was more than we were expecting.

Then someone who owed him some money paid him $300.00 of it on Friday. 

And then I brought in the mail and we had an unexpected refund from our county auditor for $45.00.

Wow!  Made for a very nice Friday, I can tell you!

I'd be happy to find a quarter on the sidewalk some days. :)

Someone sent me an e-mail about how to spend your rebate check.  She said in
order for it to stay in the U.S. and benefit our nation,  we should spend it at
yard sales because they are the only American businesses left in our country.
Tongue in cheek, of course, but food for thought.   Enjoy yours.    Pat

What a nice weekend you had!!  We didn't get ours yet and since we aren't direct deposit it looks like it will be July.  Hope you got to do something special with some of it, if not all.

OH YOU LUCKY!!! You were at the top of the list. We are looking at "by May 16"..Oh well, I really am happy for you all. And to hear someone say, "..more than we expected..." when it is cash from the government is a plus. :)
