Default What are you spending your tax returns on?!

I thought it would be fun to see what we all have planned with our income tax returns for our cars, or not. I am happy to say mine will be going toward the Camaro but not in any fun ways. I have had some electrical gremlins for a while, already replaced the tach, and now it seems a new speedo is in store. After that I need to fix some serious exhaust leaking. So that should eat up my return.

Will anyone elses car be on the recieving end of a tax return?!

Through a wierd deal we got a huge return this year.. almost 11,000

We are doing a bunch of landscaping in the backyard, a new fountain and such.

Also gonna upgrade the bbq.

Car wise I will drywall the garage, paint, new floor and some cabinets. I also have to run 220 out there so I can get my air compressozilla working.

The rest into savings and then I need to adjust my withholding. It's nice to get $$$ back but it's better not to give the govt a free loan

Technically the perfect filing is where you owe $799.. lol

You depend on the spellchecker too much. It's Karat.

Anyway, I'm hoping to get enough to buy myself a new engine for my car. Then I can have fun again.

You should see the details she has told me about this darn thing. I am considering becoming a jeweler myself after all the education I have. Princess cut 1.3CT, baggets around the band, white gold-she doesn't like the weight of platinum! Thank goodness cause the price is higher! all that BS I don't understand. I am going to do it right once so she doesn't want to upgade in the future. Hopefully! lol In all honesty its well worth it, and I have been working hard and saving for a long while.
