Probably vacation. We're going to Maryland in June, Niagara Falls in July and Colorado in September.

1/2 of ours is going to savings
1/4 toward paying down our car
1/4 toward fun* whatever we want, probably some new clothes for me since I am unsure if I will ever fit into my pre prego clothes again, and maybe some new stuff we have been wanting

it's a few dollars short of being 3 months of truck payments to pay down the principle on that loan.

Our check will be split up a bit. Some will go into our summer activities fund. Some will go toward a swingset, some for shopping (I really need new bras and never shop for myself) and some will go toward savings. If we have any debt at that time, it will be paid off, but we shouldn't have any debt unless something happens (car trouble, etc).

Ours will go towards the ever-mounting doctor bills for my chemotherapy, etc. If there is any left over, it will go into savings to replace what we've already taken out for medical expenses.

Ours is going towards replenishing our emergency fund (we haveh have had to dip into it the last few months). The rest will go towards paying off my DH's car early. The last payment is due in November, but with baby #2 coming in June, I would love to pay it off early to free up $ for diapers and formula.

Ours is going towards home repairs, motorcycle (parts), paying off cc (if I can convince dh lol), possibly sandbox for kids (saw a really cool one at target if its still there). I was reading on Dave Ramsey's website. I can't remember if it was referring to the stimulus package or not, but he said something to the effect that you shouldn't spend the money in your mind before you get it. I don't agree. If you have a plan for the $, its better than not thinking about it, get the $, then piddle it away because you're unsure of where to allocate it. JMO
