We filed our federal taxes online this year at the government site. It worked out easily and we got the check quickly.
BUT, when a tax return comes back $1500 more than you filed for, you get a little worried. You want to be excited, but you think that there HAS to be a problem. We were going to call when they were open again, but before that CM checked the status page online and there was a message that said there were errors and the money was ours!
So, we got a new TV. We got one that isn't too big. We don't like to have the TV be the center of our lives and house. We haven't had a new TV in about 6 years, so we thought it was a good idea.
We're going to put the same amount or more on our debt that we were planning, but now we can watch TV without trying to figure out what's going on in the dark! (It was really going dark and a lot of shows/movies like to do things at night!)

Woo hoo! We got some extra money when we moved that was supposed to go to a tv. My husband is dithering around trying to find the absolute best deal and has been for about six months now. I am going to be shocked when that tv actually shows up in our house.
woo hoo!
What a delightful surprise!
Wow! You're so lucky! I'm happy for you - sounds like a fun little surprise!
Yay for tax refunds! Ours will be going to student loans. *sigh* but then it is because of my husband's education that we could afford our new computer so I shouldn't complain. =)
Great news!! I wish we could get a new TV, but Hubbers is dead set against it.
thats awesome! Yeah, our return was huge, and this year we didn't need to buy a car so we got lots of things we've been needing (Including paying for summer classes).
