Top Five Places To Spend Your Incentive Check

I know you want to hold on to your check or pay off a piece of that loan or a chunk of that credit card...but why not spoil yourself, give that government bribe check a chance to work AND help boost your local economy? Here are my five picks of ways to spoil yourself and help a few locals while you're at it.  And just think, it's all courtesy of our man George W.   ...sort of.

1. Get a Brazilian Wax
I love the idea that thousands of Coloradans would pretty up their privates all in the name of saving capitalism.

2. Buy a Brand New Glittery Pink Bike
Nothing says democracy like a hotty on a pink bike- cuz baby this IS the way we Ameri-Kans roll.

3. Donate the entire amount to your Favorite Charity
There is no better way to send a big 'eff you' to The Man than by donating the entire wad to cute kittens and puppies.

4. Get Some Furniture
Let's get real, shall we? What other time in your couch potato life do you think you are going to have enough money to buy a cool new/ retro round TV on a chain to hang in front of that ugly orange ARC couch?

5. Get a Tattoo
It may or may not make a political statement, but who cares, they look cool.
