I see that the supermarket chains around here are offering a 10% bonus
if you spend part of your stimulus check there. Give them $300, get a
$330 gift card. $1200, get $1320.

Is anyone planning to reduce their grocery bill that way? I know many
other types of stores are offering the same deal.


I looked at 'stimulus check' and thought, someones got to check to see
if you're alive!! :-)


Haha, you're right. Like a terribly personal exam.

But the above deal sounds good. You get the free money, and they top it
up for you as well!!


Mine should be deposited over the weekend, I was considering dropping
$300 of it in that way for the extra 30 bucks. Maybe.

We got $600 each plus $760 for over paying taxes (WHAT? That never
happens). It's going into ING, but I'd rather buy a diamond....
however small. Hey. I'm worth it!
