Tax rebates are on the way, with the first deposits inbound as early as Friday (check the schedule here) and Americans are scrambling to figure out how to blow their wad.
I happened to have two weddings to attend over the month of May, so my check will probably be going to wedding presents for the two lucky couples. O Kosta Boda, your uselessness has no end.
Over at CNN.com though, they want you to spend your money on a little R&R. Editors of Southern Living, Coastal Living, Sunset and Cottage Living have cobbled together a list of five “great tax-rebate getaways” where you can spend a portion of your hard-earned rebate on investing back into the economy.
Among their list of top destinations are
- Charleston, South Carolina
- Grand Canyon National Park
- Destin, Florida
- Santa Fe, New Mexico
- San Francisco, California
You can read all about each destination including where to stay and eat at CNN’s website. Just make sure you don’t do anything CRAZY like pay off bills, credit cards or even (gasp) invest your rebate.
