I got a letter from my mom on Saturday, and there was a $300 check in it! In the letter she explained it: She and my dad had gotten a $1200 stimulus check and decided it would help the economy most in the hands of the "younger generation," so they had divided it between their four daughters. (Boy am I glad I got them Mother's Day and Father's Day presents this year. Usually I'm too lazy/disorganized, and I would've felt guilty about taking their gift if I'd fallen through again this year!)
The $300 is going straight into our travel fund, so it will help us on our trip where we're going to try and squeeze in two visits to my parents' house between sightseeing and other activities.
Unexpected stimulus bonus!
