    Pay off a huge chunk of the debt we still have from moving internationally and then between states!

    Since the price of food, gas and almost everything it seems these days has continued to go up we will be putting any rebate check towards paying school taxes in September.  Usually, we've been able to budget for these taxes as well as property taxes which are due in January but with the increase charges of things our limited budget is being hard stretched and still we're not able to put aside as much as will be needed to pay the increasing tax bills.

    When I get it (we filed for an extension) we will put it towards the principle of our mortgage. This will result in two savings: it will reduce our debt, and it will reduce our interest cost. I like the idea of getting double duty for the application.

    We are doing a combination of things.  1.  Purchasing a new boxsprings and mattress for our bed and our daughter.- $500 roughly  2.  Possibly purchasing a new washing machine if this one decides to bite the dust- if it doesn't will put into savings about $300 to help defray the costs of that.  3.  Putting the rest in savings until we decide whether we will need the money to live on if dh doesn't get a job by mid-September.  4.  When he does get a job will use the rest of the rebate to pay down bills.

     Wooo! Two nice $600 deposits waiting in our checking account this morning! Party!!!  Some will be used for gas for the trip to MD for my brothers hs graduation.  The rest goes towards getting my truck inspection worthy (around $200), and towards a "new" car for dear bf.
