Refund check already spent on comics?

[snitzer]

I know, I know...until it's in your hot little hand you shouldn't spend your "refund" check. I've been holding off, but it hasn't been easy! So, with the first round of checks slated to arrive soon, how are you planning on spending it? Straight to comics or to gas and groceries?

Mine's going into savings. My wife told me so.

Me and the wife agreed that the lions share of it is going to go into savings.

We are going to Disney with Aidan and the in-laws (who are paying for almost all of the trip) so we will probably use some of it to help pay for that trip. The rest of it is going to into savings to pad it

Mine is going to start my daughter a college fund......she is going to have to take care of me and my wife someday so I want her to have a good job.

Not a bad idea since you'll have to pay it back with the next years tax refund

No bills to pay, but the saving account isn't a bad Idea or spending it on comics for that matter

This is wrong. This is an advance of a tax credit that you will receive next year. It is not paid back.

Thank god you chimed in. I am having horrific flashbacks. It is a new credit that did not exist before, folks. There is no payback. You are just getting it early.

Just be careful when you do taxes next year - don't double claim the credit, as you've already received it once.

 

A lot of people hosed themselves on the child tax credit when it was implemented, as it was done the same way - issued in the spring - then folks forgot about that, and claimed it again when they did taxes the following winter.

I plan on spending mine at WW Philly.

It will buy you two panels of WD original art.

Since we have a cute little dachsund that likes to chew up our bed frames, our money will be going for new beds.

Na, its all going to bills

[gernblanston]

I just bought an X-Men 94 CGC 9.2. Refund spent.

[tsarax]

I wish I could spend it on comics, but just too many bills...

[homerwannabee]

If I could spend it on comics I probably would get a run of Amazing Spiderman copper comics.

Mine's going to ComicDey who's been holding an ASM #1 for me for months now!
