Default Your Stimulus Check...If You Are Getting One That Is

I saw this question posed on another forum I frequent...

How are you going to spend your stimulus check? Will you be stimulating the economy??


In answer to my own question... $1500 is going into savings and $300 is going to some of those little things that pop up that aren't budgeted for... I have two new kittens that need shots and my dog needs his boosters...(new Coach purse...j/k)... ya know, stuff like that.

If I get anything it's going into savings.

My income is non-taxable (VA disability), so all I am getting is the $300 stimulus...bills. But then again, by the time it gets here, it might just be enough to fill up the gas tank.

I'm not sure if I'm getting anything back yet, but if I do I'm going to Vegas next weekend. I think there is a massage calling my name at the spa where we are staying.
