Here's A List Of Ways To Spend Your $1,200 Check That You May Not Have Thought Of

We will soon start to see our Stimulus Checks hitting our bank accounts, and I can’t wait.

Sure, I have some bills I have to pay, but I also want to use some of that money on things I have been putting off — Things that always get pushed to the back burner, because some financial crisis come up.

Well, not anymore. Ha!

Here are a few things that would be AWESOME to get with your stimulus money:

1) A New Mattress. I’m not even going to lie right now. I’ve been married for 20 years, and we haven’t had a new mattress since the day we got engaged. I think it’s about time! Mattress Firm is having some FREAKING AWESOME deals right now, including King Size beds for LESS than $500! And, they will deliver. Yes, please!

2) A Deep Freeze Freezer. This will be GREAT for storing frozen foods I may need during this pandemic — especially if this quarantine goes on much longer. I found simple Chest Freezer at Walmart, it is less than $300, and they have free delivery!

3) An Espresso Machine. I mean, do I really have to explain why this is a great purchase? I’m not talking a little steam pump powered coffee machine that has the capability to steam milk. I’m talking, an actual Espresso Machine! Like, a heavy duty machine that brews QUALITY espresso, and delivers action-packed steam for your milk. Walmart has a good selection, and they start at about $80.

4) A Lawn Mower. I don’t know about you, but our lawn mower SUCKS! It is old. It doesn’t want to start half the time. And, I just don’t like it. I’ve been looking around for a new one. At Home Depot, you can get a pretty good new mower for under $200. You can also get a STELLAR mower for under $500. If you want to get CRAZY, you can get a riding lawn mower for less than $1,200. That might be TOTALLY worth it.

5) Stocks. I’m not even going to PRETEND to know what I’m talking about when it comes to stocks and bonds. BUT, I do know that stock prices are low right now. It’s the perfect time to buy, right? I don’t know. I’d get some actual professional advice on that. Ha!

6) A New Car. Yep, I went there. My car is about on its last leg. This would be the perfect time to put a down payment on a NEW, more reliable car. Sure, your stimulus check won’t cover the ENTIRE price of a new car, but it’s a great start.

7) Plan a Trip. Granted, this is kind of iffy and up in the air right now. BUT, how fun would it be to plan a vacation to the Beach, Disney World, the Mountains, Universal Studios — or insert your favorite vacation spot, here?!?
