    ours will go to a maxirider for DD, chest of drawers for bubs and some towards our doula.
    ALLLLLLLLL of our savings are frozen in the credit crisis so have to spend wisely!

    We won't be getting it .

    TBH ours would have gone straight on our mortgage.

    We dont get it either bummer But would have probably put it off our mortgage or maybe into DS savings?

    thats the right thing to do as DH would have said but i would have spent it on a christmas party with my friends

    Ours is going to pay bills. This time of year sucks for all the bills coming in, you know the power,water,land rates etc.

    Ours will be going into savings to help when we are on a single income again when bubba comes. To be honest we'll probably be spending a little bit on buying Olivia a big girl bed in a few months.

    Going to book us on the boat to Tassie for Easter next year to visit family and friends. The rest will sit in the home loan until the trip when it will be used as spending money.
