Any Stimulus Check Plans?

Has anyone received their stimulus payment yet? Any plans on how you're going to spend it?

I'm in the first group of people who are supposed to receive it by tomorrow via direct deposit. Hopefully I'll get it soon, as I'm putting some of mine towards May rent, and though my landlord doesn't care, I'd like to not be very late. As for the rest, I might have to send some money towards the "underground" economy for some weed now that I'm done with all my final projects for the semester... especially since I've been meaning to see Harold and Kumar 2.

I plan on getting a new handgun - maybe a Kal Tec .25.

Beef jerky FTW. And now I'm seriously craving some.

Well thank you sir.
I was sporting a fine camera (my new Canon g9) and was lucky enough to be there during the Cherry Blossom Festival. There was good lighting on most days.

Good deal. I just finished taking a digital photography class, and though I was able to do fine with my old Powershot A75 (only a 3.2 megapixel and about 4 years old) it really made me want to save up for a nice Digital SLR.

I wish there was a forwarding option so that I can send it directly to American Express.
