Marky Mark Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 Excellent idea, I'll try to work the attic into that picture too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santo=dorf Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Make sure you get the $7,500 tax credit. It comes out of 15 tax returns in equal payments starting in two years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Keep up on the small maintenance. Saving pennies costs dollars in the long run. Check your mortgage and add a little to your payment each month. Congratulations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrangeSox Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Congrats! QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 07:59 AM) Make sure you get the $7,500 tax credit. It comes out of 15 tax returns in equal payments starting in two years. I thought the new one that's $8000 doesn't have to be paid back?

shipps Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 You have to buy those Geese figures that you put on your front porch that you can dress up in different costumes everyday. They are adorable....oh they are so adorable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
