Morning Buzz for Monday 2/18/08 - Will you go on a spending spree?
Those "tax rebate checks" we've heard so much aren't in the mail... but they will be soon. Will people actually spend the money? Only time will tell. A recent Associated Press-Ipsos poll indicates most people have other plans. 45% said they planned to pay off bills, while 32% said they would save or invest it. Only 19% said they would spend their rebate money.
