NO!

Actually, I always tried (through creative accounting) to get my refund to pay for my season tickets. Didn't quite do it this year.

Also, if your getting that much of a refund, you must be OK with the government holding that much of your money, interest free, for a year. Good for you. I'm not comfortable with the government holding anything of mine. Let alone my money.

Got back a whopping $75 from FED.

Owed about $150 to state.

Cost $40 or so to do it online.

So overall paid $115

Effective Fed rate of 16.2%. BS.

Pretty much get screwed because I'm single, no dependents, no mortgage last year and pretty much all of my student loans payments are going to the principle now since I dont owe much anymore (like $15 out of $200 going to interest when it used to be $100 or more every payment)

I do my turbotax thing as the tax forms come in. I was looking at a sweet $10k+ refund until I got a W2 from my summer gig. Paid $922 to feds on $23k. Ouch. Plus that took me over EIC. Double ouch. Would have paid if not for having another kid. Instead I got about $320. Thanks, 53%. I owe you for covering my car insurance for 6 months.

a couple grand. my wife and i are remodeling our home and we were able to deduct a number of the expenses because we installed energy-saving technology. we also deducted the parts of my travel expenses to asia last year that were related to my volunteer work in cambodia.

no rewards for ourselves with it though... the whole thing is going straight to our mortgage
