I paid for a new roof with mine.

In your case, I'd pay off the bike.

Well, our tax refund wouldn't put a dent in what we owe on the both our bikes, so we opted for using some of it to buy a few things we felt we need but didn't want to add on to the purchase price of the bike and adding more to the monthyly payments and additional interest. The rest is helping to pay a couple unexpected medical/dental bills.

If our refund had been enough to pay off a vehicle, that's what I would have done. But the things we opted to buy were not just bling. Well ... maybe just a little bling. But mostly saddlebags, racks, engine guard for mine. New, comfortable seat (is that considered bling or necessity, hmmmm).

Normally our refunds go toward vacation also, but not this year. Hubby has a new job, and no vacation. :-(

What the hell is a tax refund? I'm self employed, so there are no such things as tax refunds. Oh well.

Can't tell if your joking (someone should create sarcastic font to eliminate ambiguous tone in correspondence). I'm going to go with... you are joking.... since every other commercial for the last few months has been from either Turbo Tax, Tax Act, or H&R Block....all claiming to be the best at maximizing your REFUND. Now back to looking for those early HD tank emblems.....
