Posted: 03.07.2002 If you get too cold I'll tax the heat
We made the annual trek to H&R Block tonight to get our taxes done. We went in armed with story after story of how much better it would be now that we're homeowners.....not! I can't complain too much since we don't owe -- but we won't be getting that nice, fat refund check we'd hoped to buy sod, take a vacation and fix the brakes on the Explorer with either. We have just enough to do the essential...fix the brakes. Poor Todd looked like he'd been sucker-punched when the lady who worked on our return gave us the total. Next year we should get about five-times back what we made this year since we'll have lived in the house a full year then (she did a mock-2002 return for us), but that's next year. 'Til then, the man keeps on keeping us down. C'est la vie!
 I happen to know people at H&R Block that have told me to stay away. They won't get you back what you should get back. This after having gone there and being dissapointed in my return about five years ago. Haven't been back since and I usually walk out with a smile on my face now after doing taxes. I was ready to get them this year...just not at H&R Block ;] ¤ ¤ credit: Heath | 03.08.02 at 02:21 PM | link- -this ¤ ¤ We went through the same thing the first year after we bought our house (cause we bought it mid-year). It sucks cause everyone winds you up about how much you're going to get back, blah blah blah. At least for us, the next year rocked. Here's hoping it does for you too! ¤ ¤ credit: skarlet | 03.08.02 at 08:07 PM | link--this ¤ ¤
