    I won't get one because I didn't give the government an interest free loan all year.

    THANK YOU

    Good for you. :flowerforyou:

    My son is graduating this year, so some will go for that, his tattoo for his 18th birthday in April (I promised that a couple years ago), my wedding in October. I don't think I'll have any after that.

    I'm self employed with fluctuating income. Tax time is always a surprise.

    It will just go into savings to be available to piddle away as the year goes by.

    How's your cash reserve? Do you have 6mo living expenses socked away (outside of a retirement account)?

    If your getting that much back, you need to adjust your tax withholding cause your just giving the government a free loan of your money... Just a FYI

    Unless the OP is getting EITC or another refundable credit. Refunds are not always from withholding.

    Visit your local KTM dealer. They sell giant doses of adrenaline.

    Seriously, I would travel. Or replace my hot water heater, Cause, you know, life.

    how are we not friends.

    I'd kill to have a super duke.

    mine will go to a new costume and my CC bill. I never get back thousands- I try to break even- the last three years I have owe but I suspect I'll get back a little more than normal this year.

    We'll be making a contribution to our daughters 529 college plan. Maybe even opening an Roth IRA in her name too. She's 8 weeks old, never too soon to save for retirement!

    The rest will be "fun money" for me, as I'm now a stay at home mom.

    I like getting back a sum of money every year, and not owing any Local taxes myself. Call me crazy?

    I put all of my extra cash over $1000.00/week during the summer into Savings for emergency winter fund, and my 401K is automatically deducted from my Checks, so at tax season I like to get money back to splurge on whatever I want.

    Same here.

    ETA, we'll get one b/c I'd rather give a small loan than owe, but it won't be much.
