Ah, tax day. Returns are filed. And now we wait. Hopefully, you’re one of the lucky ones who will get a refund check from Uncle Sam this year. Sure, you could put it in the bank or pay off some debt, but what’s the fun in THAT?! Since it’s kinda like “found money,” maybe you should spend it on something not-at-all-necessary. That’s why we put together this list!
