Not to rain on anyone's parade, but why not try adjusting your withholding so you get more back per pay period, and put the excess in an interest paying account??? Why let the goverment hold on to your money for over a year and not pay you any interest on the money??? Seems like most people could use extra $$$ during the year, but that's just me, blasphemer and all.

Good idea, but the money is too easy to get my hands on then...

This way, I have no access to it and no it will be there when it comes time to pay for our vacation...

Yay! to the OP. Our taxes were more than we figured since last year's refund was roughly $100, lol. So it was large and half went for shopping fun and the other half paid our Poly room deposit That was a nice surprise because we were not counting on useing a tax refund in any way.

Thanks tarazandra!!!

That is great that you got back more than you were expecting, too!!!

Enjoy your trip!!!

CPA hasn't finished with ours yet, but we are going completely free using, hotel point (offsite), frequent flyer miles for airplane, and AmEx for the park tickets--had to request this as a special item through their "your reward" program.

Congratulations to everyone on getting your money back, I do same thing even though I'm passing up the interest. Let's face it I would just blow it on junk through out the year!
