      The first direct deposit checks will begin on Monday, while the paper checks will start on May 9.

      I plan on filling up my gas tank two or three times.

        Yeah and the paper checks will go by Ending social security numbers. Some go all the way to July.

              When I completed my taxes with Turbo Tax, I think it calculated what my stimulus check would be. I didn't even bother to look because I had assumed it was going to be over $2000 I can't remember the breakdown for married with 3 kids but just recently found out there was some type of phaseout so now I should go back and look.

              I really didn't have anything in mind to do with it but there probably won't be much :(

                Now that's the best. Using your refund to pay your taxes. I love the irony.

                          My money will go to save the American economy. That's what it's for... it'd be un-American to do anything less with it! I will buy items from China.

                            I remember the last time this sort of thing happened, it was $400. The comedian Lewis Black had a line about it--something like "all $400 does is remind you how f#@%ed you are!"

                              If ya go irs.gov , there is a calculator to get your amount figure.
                              Mine was what they pretty much estimated...$1200 for married filing jointly and $600 for the two kids.
                              They also have a chart showing direct deposit dates....those all look to end on May 16th, which is where our social security numbers fall into.
                              plus, it is NOT taxable for 2008 as found in their FAQs.
