    I just viewed my pay stub online. I am seeing an increase in my paycheck and I NEED that. I get to pay my loans off this summer a little bit quicker. We have to come up with money to get a new roof ...just discovered there is a hole in the roof last weekend. First air ducts and now this? F***ing s**t. There is a wedding to save for too. Anything helps.

    What are you going to do with that increase in your paycheck?

    Keep the politics out of this thread, please.

    Wasn't this like two months ago?

    It really isn't much though. Like $30?

    It's in your withholding tax. You'll know you got it if your withholding tax is less than the previous paychecks.

    My bump started a month or two ago, I'm getting around $30/week more. I'm not doing anything in particular with the cash, guess it's going to bills with the rest of my money...

    It's part of the stimulus package. We get a little bit more money after taxes.
