BTT: Tax Refund

Posted by ~*Kaila*~ on 11:05 AM in
Question:

Yesterday, April 15th, was Tax Day here in the U.S., which means lots of lucky people will get refunds of over-paid taxes.
Whether you’re one of them or not, what would you spend an unexpected windfall on? Say … $50? How about $500?
(And, this is a reading meme, so by rights the answer should be book-related, but hey, feel free to go wild and splurge on anything you like.)


I did get a refund this year and unfortunitely most of it went to bills and other unfun stuff like that but I am going to answer this question as if bills didn't exist ;)

If I only got $50 back I would probably just put it in the savings account and not worry with it but if I had $500 to spend on whatever I wanted . . . the first thing would be a real bookshelf. I mean really, check out Mt. TBR right now, it's pretty sad. Obviously at some point I would have to buy books and I would probably spend some of that money trading my books with people overseas. I can't afford to do that very often with postage being so high but I enjoy doing it when I can. I would also spend some of the money on ink and label making supplies.

As for non-book related things, I could always use new clothes and going out with friends. I also would do some upkeep type stuff to the car although that might by considered a bill in a way. Other than that, I can't think of anything but I also know me and it wouldn't take long to spend $500. What about you, what would you spend the money on if you had it to spend?
