I filed my taxes online again this year. The date of filing was April 13th, just a few minutes before midnight. I was very impressed that my MA refund was deposited to my bank account on April 21st, and then the IRS refund came just one day later, also via Direct Deposit. What really stunned me was that, despite having read this and knowing that the last 2 digits of my SSN are 0 followed by something else, when I went to the ATM yesterday to get some cash, I noticed that my $600 economic stimulus payoffment had already been deposited.
If anyone's looking for me, I'll be at the furniture store. Thanks, Dubya!

Posted by: Karan on April 30, 2008 03:40 PMYou getting me a new ironing board? I'm still waiting on my $600 bucks. I think the closer you are to the source the quicker you get it.
Posted by: chapin on April 30, 2008 06:09 PMI am *so* not stimulating the economy with this check. But, as you know, I hate America. And freedom. And the children.

Posted by: Linkmeister on May 1, 2008 07:41 PMKaran, I know it's not furniture, but I've just ordered one of these, and I'm shopping for something like this.
Chapin: The answer is nope. But you could buy yourself a heckuvan ironing board with 600 smackeroos.
Tomorrow: I never doubted you.
Linky: Hmph, indeed.
I haven't seen mine yet. And it's not my job to stimulate the economy, it's my job to make sure I can take care of myself in my dotage, so it's going into savings. Or, at least it's going into the 'I might need this money for a move to another state' bucket in my savings account.
