I like the way that they took her photo just after she’d bit into a lemon. :hihi:


What really cracks me up about all of this is what many people actually plan to spend their money on.

I’ll pay off my Ferrari then I’ll take an overseas trip, buy a 3700 inch plasma TV and then spend the rest on a case of Grange Hermitage.

$900 doesn’t actually go very far these days.

I doubt that guy/kid in the paper was old enough to receive the payment. I think he was having the paper on!
Think he was trying to do the "corey" thing. Yeah right ladies, bet he wouldn't last the first lady!
Hahaha.

Still no go on mine or the mrs! 3 weeks to go. I bet my luck will be on the last day!

You sound like you’re the only one here who pays tax. Build a bridge and get over it. If you’re not eligible, you’re obviously making some pretty good coin anyway.

WTF, I didn't mean it like that at all, I meant it as in (as others have mentioned here too) that 900 doesn't go far these days, so realy it isn't that much.
It would of been great though if I did get it , I wouldn't of been complaining . cheers.

HAHAHA . best post in this thread by far.

the best i can come up with is she'll go shopping buy about $3000 worth of stuff , on special. saving a few hundred dollars off retail
. therefore 900 stimulas +2100 credit = $3000.
she'll go home and tell her husband or boyfriend, she bought $3500 worth of stuff , and only HAD TO PUT $2100 on credit .
therefore she $ SAVED $1400, and everyone should be happy.
