"We could have used the money elsewhere. It's not going to help kicking in the market. I have plans to go to Australia to do some backpacking (with wife Tegan), so we'll probably use some of that money for the air tickets."

"I thought it was a nice gesture. It's probably a drop in the bucket, but some people could probably really use the three hundred dollars or whatever they're going to get. I don't have any plans for that particular money. We'll probably just use it for gas money when we travel to Arkansas to see family."

"I think they're (government officials) are just trying to spend more instead of saving more; consequently, it's not going to work with me because I'm going to save mine. I'm not buying into the whole stimulus program. I'll probably eventually use it for gasoline."
