Mine was already spent long ago. I'll be taking mine and paying down one of my credit cards with it. I thought about blowing it on something but I think I'll do the right thing. 8) 8)

That is all a bunch of bull crap. Stop buying into all of the idiotic forwarded messages you get in you email. But the premise of your post is correct. The only way that the economy will be stimulated is if thosethat receive those payments blow it at the mall. There was a poll taken last week that asked what people will do with their "stimulus" payments.

Only 19% said they would blow their money. The rest said they will either invest it or pay down debt.

This "economic stimulus" is a freakin joke.

No, you paid that much extra in and they feel guilty :lol:

90% of all polls can be twisted 50% of the time to make 73% of the people believe them.

Mines going to pay off my last credit card.

No such thing as free money. It is money our descendants will be paying for in one way or another.

If any of us would spend money like the government does (state and federal) we would be rotting in jail for a very, very long time.

I'm taking my USD...and buying CAD.
I wish I could afford EUR.
Anyway...I'm proud to tip with Canadian money now.
Makes me feel like a big shot.
