smart moves with your tax refund

[alleaeon]

tax season is right around the corner, and for those of us who are getting a return, anticipating spending is a must! I was wondering what some of you will be doing with your chunk of change to get some fresh ideas for myself....ya know, besides splurging on a new car, clothes etc. I'm over all of that and can wait for those things when I am able to afford them. Right now, I'm trying to move my family and myself forward, not stay stuck in the present!

Paying bills And people who loaned us money this year.

Paying off our vehicle loan, and a few bills. Working on my credit, and I've finally got it to a decent range, at least enough that I can get a loan for a house, but I've still got some debt that needs to be paid off from being young and stupid with credit cards. Nothing majorly high though, about $400, the more paid off the better!

Deposit for a new place, and pay ahead on car

A new home.  We live in a mobile home and I HATE it.  If the tax refund is not enough for the down payment, I would be willing to sell a kidney.  I want a real house that bad.

Wow really? I was thinking of buying one eventually.
