GIVEAWAY! A Pick-Me Up from the Tax Day Blues!

[dotKomo]

Need a pick-me up after paying the Man on Tax Day? Here is a giveaway as part of my den reduction:

A Gem Micromatic Bullet Tip and a puck of VH (unused).

Rules:

1. CONUS only.
2. You had to pay the IRS when you filed your return (no refund).
3. Say "I'm in."

I will pick a winner Friday by random number generator using MS Excel.

Good luck!

Respectfully not in, but I wanted to cry about my tax bill. Son somehow aged out of being a tax credit. Time passes so quickly.

Very generous of you, @dotKomo!

Respectfully not in as well.

@cranewarrior while I haven't had that this year, I did realize when doing my taxes that my daughter will no longer be a tax credit next year. Already preparing for the tax hit...

Neat idea for a PIF! Not in as we got a refund.

 

[JohnG]

I'm in.

Never used Van Der Hagen before, but saw it in the store. What kind of scent is it? (Not looking a gift horse in the mouth, just curious.)

I'm 1099. Last year I earned like $7300 before I moved home and existed on savings while I got some shyte sorted out. $487 in taxes to Uncle Sam.

Seriously? That much? What absolute nonsense.

 

[haulage]

Haha! Seriously I had a bad hit this year, I didn't save up enough for taxes. I bit the bullet and paid on credit card, now have to figure out how to get out of the hole.
My MIL had cancer, so my wife took out a 401k loan last year which she couldn't repay because she lost her job immediately after. So, uncle Sam asked for his pound of flesh too on our own money borrowed from ourselves lol. I guess need to be save more this year and rebuild savings.

Anyways, is that a gem razor? I'm in!

 

[ewk]

I paid, so that must mean I'm in. Thank you for the opportunity.

Nice PIF, But we received a refund, so that makes me ineligible.
I guess I'll just have to live with the refund.

You just keep whistling past the graveyard like that, friend. When the zombies start breaking out from the surface and you CAN'T dance like Michael Jackson, then we'll see who's who and what's what.

VDH is lightly scented. Pretty neutral and dissipates quickly.

No, sorry. I'm okay.

I would be the happiest person on Earth if in my country there was only one tax day blues

Here, everyday is a tax day

Nice PIF, respectfully not in

 

[cajunrph]

Great idea, it's a rare year when I actually received a refund. Best of luck to the participants. Respectively out.
