So I just got my $600.00 stimulus package check-thingy...
by surprise...went I went to use the ATM this morning, my balance seemed much higher than it was two days ago. Apparently, it was direct deposited. I was expecting the snail-mail check. Anyone elses check direct deposited? I didn't even opt for it, but then again I'm not complaining

1. I got direct deposit
I guess because I had my federal return directly deposited. Did you have your refund DD (if you got one)? Mine came in around the 5th, I checked online yesterday since some coworkers were talking about not getting theirs yet.

2. I think it was sent to you the same way you got your tax return.
I got mine yesterday electronically deposited.

12. Hi from Florida
It is toasty today. About 85 and 80% humidity.

Summer is here and in full swing, but since I'm a person who moved here from up north I'm not going to complain.

Seems bad form to move to Florida and then complain about the heat.

Thanks for saying hi.

5. We bought a new king sized bed for a STEAL!
The bed is a white sleigh bed that we can paint if we decide to later. It's lovely. We've been needing to upgrade for sometime. Anyway. Enjoy your stimulus package!! :hi:

9. I'm not sure why we haven't gotten ours yet...
From the IRS website I thought we would have been direct deposited last week -- and they sure didn't waste any time cashing the $2710 check I sent to them...it cleared my credit union on 4/9. I'm a little bit offended that they're dragging their feet.

11. I got mine by direct deposit.
Then I paid for numerous bills electronically.

Now my stimulus is all gone. :(

14. So it wasn't all that stimulating, was it?
Don't worry, $500.00 of mine is going to ONE credit card
