Good call prioritizing the outstanding debts :). This go around I put 50% into a high-yield savings account since some of these were recently completed. Another “investment” I plan to make with some of this money is my health. That means buying more organic food, spending more money on fish and less on red meat. Spending money to better your quality of life is just as valuable as bettering your financial situation! What are you gonna do if you’re not around to enjoy your retirement funds!! Food for thought 😉

We are using ours to pay off our last credit card – after that we will be completely debt free! No mortgage, no car payment, no credit card debt. I can’t wait!

Rebuild our savings! We just bought a car and have some other expenses coming up, so anything we get is going straight in the bank.

That what was quite a large amount. It would be a wonderful idea if you pay it to your car loan.

We had the same situation that you did! $1000 is going into savings, and a little over $300 to whatever we want, which will probably wind up being takeaway Chinese food and then a big credit card payment.

I didn’t think I’d be getting a refund (last year I owed). But I’m actually getting $1000 back (which means I didn’t do a very good job with my deductions, but that’s another story). I plan on putting into my savings.
