I like the guy who spent his on a bag of weed.

I used mine to buy a bike too! http://www.feltracing.com/08/product.asp?catid=1504,1525&pid=8718
Thank you US Government!

Stimulus? What are you talking about?

Mine is sitting in savings. Someday we will have a chance to pick out our new fridge.

Haven't gotten one...might not:rolleyes:

Here's my contribution to the economy:

Stimulus refund? I wish. The cretinous crowd at Revenue Canada clawed back my GST rebate cuz I went and did something silly like get married.

Mine is currently sequestered in savings. I'll probably spend it on brazing gear, as a followup to a recent framebuilding class at United Bicycle Institute (http://www.bikeschool.com/frame.htm)... this probably won't occur until sometime next year, however. If that doesn't work out for whatever reason, a tikit (http://www.bikefriday.com/tikit) would be the most likely alternative.

I`m definitely using mine to stimulate the economy. It will pay for a good chunk of our church wedding next month- in Guadalajara. Think President Calderon will thank me for the economic stimulous?

Im going to stimulate Mexico's economy with it.

I am planning on using part of my stimulus to go buy a Hardrock Sport, pics when I finally get it!

Still (aughhhhh) waiting.
But it's already spent.
Polar CS100 for the Moto CF
2 more pairs of cycling shorts from aerotech designs
the Zebra shirt from aerotech designs
full set of float bags for the creek boat(kayak)
pair of hydroskin shorts for the lake boat(kayak)
Gas to get anywhere with either of the kayaks :eek:
Fuel filter change and injector clean (needed to keep the warrenty)
Wonder if next year (should they have this)I should claim the critters as children.

Ummmm........it helped pay off the new main drain pipe in our back yard (from house to city sewer). Really nice to have one not full of silver maple roots.

Hadn't got my stimulus check yet. I like the bike I ride so I'm getting bike toys, new bag, lights,fenders, etc.......

Don't you know that tobacco is bad for you?;)

I'm told mine likely won't show up until July.

BTW this isn't a rebate or free money, W and Congress made a cash advance withdrawal on the our collective (taxpayers )credit card that we will have to pay back with interest.

I'm rebuilding my bathroom.
