Spending Your Tax Rebate
There’s a good article about how people are going to spend their tax rebate. Here’s a snippet:
Many consumers are using the money to finance purchases of essential goods and services that they could have ill afforded otherwise. Helen Wood, a saleswoman for an Atlanta office-supply firm, spent her $139 check on children’s bathing suits and some clothes for herself. A Pittsburgh mother of five says that she cashed her check and used it for food and household supplies—without telling her husband. Detroit Secretary Virginia Donohue is paying for dental work with her rebate. “It’s a godsend,” she exclaims.
