Ask:
We just filed our taxes today, and are getting a little money back. I know I should use the money to pay down some debt, but don't you ever just want to buy something new?? I know it is selfish and not practical, but paying bills all of the time can get so depressing.
Answer:

Answer:
We got ours back Friday and I paid off the Visa and Best Buy so no credit card debt now. Just vehicle house and utilities. I want to get counter tops __ I only have about 15 ft of counters so I just want the cheap stuff for now. My colors are a dark sagey green and one red wall--the countertops in there are kinda a cross between periwinkle and sky blue!!!
Then my husband wants $1000. put in savings and if he starts being nicer maybe a nintendo wii for him lol.

I'm not sure how much I am getting back this year, but whatever it is, I am paying on the cc and also giving my mom & dad some of it..
Answer:
We have done our taxes and have received the smaller of the two refunds. What we plan to do :
-pay off CC (1500.00)
-buy couch/loveseat or chair(300.00) from Craigslist.
- the rest goes into savings because we will be moving out of the in-laws house in June!!!
