We received ours. I wanted to save it "just in case" DW wanted to spend it. The next week the freezer died... we both got what we desired.

Okay what exactly are they trying to stimulate? OT at the IRS, Postage for the Postal Service?

I just got my second letter telling me that I am going to get one. This one told me I will be getting it next week.

Why spend the money and manpower printing and mailing these notifications? What a joke






We didn't think we would receive a check, but they sent us one of those " the check is in the mail", notices.

We are still waiting.


Well not any longer,

because it came yesterday. There we were, sitting by a river in Golden Colorado watching the world float by on rafts, tubes and kayaks when a UPS truck pulled up and the driver walks over and handed us our mail.

And there it was.

Life is good.

You mean that the checks are so big that they have to use a truck?

Yeah....We got one of those "the check's in the mail" too. On the back it shows the deducts and how much you will recieve. We'll be trying not to spend our $10.50 all in one place....once it arrives.

Happy Camping to all!!!

I called about ours today since we were supposed to get it already.The rocording said it will arrive July 4th but if we dont get it then don't call before August.The way i figure it we will probably get it in time to pay our next year taxes!.

Well, we'll get the check and use it to fill the MH tank, that should just about take all of it. Lets see, 100+ gallons at 4.899 = about $500 of the $600. Hopefully I will get by with only about 100 gallons and not need the full 150 that the tank takes!

Oops, forgot we already spent it when the dryer quit, now the washer is making strange noises too, maybe the fuel tank will have to wait till the next stimulus check!!
