Weekend number 2- Where’s my money?!

April 19, 2009 by Kruddler!
Filed under: $900 stimulus package ftw, Economic Stimulus Package, Stimulus Package News 

So it’s nearly week 3 of the stimulation season, and I’m still totally unstimulated! Anyone else feeling it? Or more likely not feeling it. Honestly I feel as though as I deserve my money… I’m a hard working Aussie who thinks this is a pretty good country, hasn’t ever been a burden on the gov’t, does his tax on time and thinks Khe San should be our national anthem. I’ve created loads of awareness and place where people can discuss the stimulus package, so I think I should get the nod and receive some of  Kevin Rudd’s stimulation. I hate to see some “undeserving people” receive their money before me, and I think you know who I’m talking about…Twilight fans, people who don’t like lamingtons, and people who have never seen Star Wars. It makes me sick.

LOLRUS needs stimulation too!

    4. Same as above. I also voted for you K Rudd! Need the money to pay bills! It seems like I won’t get it till july at this rate! And trust me the government will have to refund MUCH more than $900 then!

  4. Mattt on Sun, 19th Apr 2009 8:49 pm

    5. i wish it was done by when you put your return in, i did mine 1st week in july last year and nothing. damn you post codes!

    8. I am totally bummed I haven’t got my money yet, I am checking my bank account every day hoping that the balance will go from $88 to $988. It may seem silly but because I didn’t get the first payment they gave out I didn’t take much notice of how they gave them out. I was just expecting to get my money on the day it started – I didn’t realise it was a month long money giving event. I have already allocated the money my partner and I get to staying at a super nice wilderness lodge in tas. So when I am sitting in the hot tub having champagne I will toast to mr rudd – If I ever get my bloody money!

    9. Oh, and I know this was an ‘in joke’ but due to my last of short term memory, I forgot what the ‘in’ was, so now I guess I’m ‘out’, but still clinging to it in the hope that someone will think I’m cool. I’d be cooler if I was rolling in a kiddies pool filled with 18056 5cent pieces. (I already have 56 5cent pieces sitting around so it’d be a shame to waste them)

    10. Still hanging out for my $900.
    My bike got nicked yesterday and I’m sure that stimulation from Kevin would cheer me right up.
    Way to get my hopes up, Mr Rudd.

  10. lucy on Mon, 20th Apr 2009 3:49 pm

  11. Bazbo7 on Mon, 20th Apr 2009 4:40 pm

    12. Haha I know of a mad ‘twilight fan’ who doesn’t really know much Chisel and already got hers. Its a travesty! Its like they’re rewarding the stupidity!
    Regardless, I want mah moneyz

  12. Steve on Mon, 20th Apr 2009 6:21 pm

    13. I head that people getting it in the mail have got it but people waiting for a bank transfer have not.

    Is this true?

  13. Sam on Mon, 20th Apr 2009 6:34 pm

    14. I must admit I have been overzealous and blew my stimulus prematurely. The new scooter is great, but it would be even better if I had $900 for some fresh leathers.

  14. admin on Mon, 20th Apr 2009 10:02 pm

    15. @ steve – nearly everyone that has emailed me and commented on the site have received the $900 via direct deposit!

  15. Mak on Tue, 21st Apr 2009 11:14 am

    16. I better comment then I need the Dosh now Kev!

  16. Adam on Tue, 21st Apr 2009 2:56 pm

  18. lurkey on Tue, 21st Apr 2009 4:10 pm

    19. w.a. 6064 the state always last no cash yet ..are the banks going to pay us the profits made from short term money markets cos they are using the money which is not theres to profit .. isnt that illegal

  19. Ness on Tue, 21st Apr 2009 4:17 pm

    20. I dunno lurkey.. My suburb is apparently unheard of, 6058 (in WA). No one knows where we are!

    21. im 5081 anyone got theirs??

  21. Kitten on Tue, 21st Apr 2009 5:57 pm

    22. It’s completely random folks!
    It has nothing to do with postcodes, alphabetical or when you lodged last years tax return!
    I still haven’t got mine either but people in my postcode have, people with the same last name initial have and people who lodged their tax return around the same time as me have.
    I’m just hoping that mine comes before the weekend so I can have a pit of spending fun.
    Last week, I wanted to stimulate the economy by buying an awesome (cough $179.95) jacket from “Forever New” which I would have snapped up in a second if I had my $900!! The store doesn’t even allow lay by so they missed out!

  22. Bella on Tue, 21st Apr 2009 9:46 pm

    23. Kitten, it IS in fact, by postcode.

    from the ATO website:
    All cheque and EFT payments will be made using a post code selection process that is randomly generated, ensuring all post codes are evenly distributed to each state and territory each night (using the Australia Post predetermined percentage spread). For this reason and because of security concerns, we are not planning to publish a distribution schedule.

    just be happy to be getting it.

  25. Cricket on Wed, 22nd Apr 2009 9:23 am

    26. I live in 2132 and my flatmate got her payment last week and I still don’t have mine. Several of my friends are in the same boat where someone in their household has received the payment and others haven’t yet. They are obviously paying randomly.

    Hey listen you ********. If you don’t like it then don’t come to a blog that obviously has people trying to find out when they will get paid…

    .. and why did you come to this page in the first place if you are so uninterested in the payment you hypocrite piece of ****.

  27. Random on Wed, 22nd Apr 2009 5:06 pm

    28. LMAO “******* e r s ” don’t get blocked but ” ******* h e a d ” and “******* ” get’s blocked lol

  28. Kitten on Wed, 22nd Apr 2009 5:07 pm

    29. Bella – how do you explain why I got my $900 today and my boyfriend who lives in the same house as me didn’t?

  29. sarah on Wed, 22nd Apr 2009 5:51 pm

    30. Yeah, thanks anonymous, just ’cause we’re impatient, doesn’t mean we’re not grateful. Look at it this way: just because something is free, you shouldn’t anticipate that it to be shite. Which this strange, random, SLOW distribution system clearly is!
    I haven’t got mine, I know of two people who have theirs: and they have spent the last week trying to convince me to read twilight. Telling me that they loved it so much they read it in 2 days…. maybe that’s the secret to getting the bonus. In which case, Krudd, you can keep it.

    31. kev its been 3 weeks and still no cash *** .. SHOW ME THE MONEY SHOW ME THE MONEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

  33. Xander on Fri, 24th Apr 2009 1:12 pm

    34. It’s interesting. I live in the same suburb as my sister. We both did our tax within the first week, and she has received it and I haven’t… What gives? Postcode 4814.

  34. Kruddler! on Fri, 24th Apr 2009 1:14 pm

    35. Ouch, that does suck! Maybe you need to “borrow” some money ;)

  35. tim on Fri, 24th Apr 2009 1:16 pm

    36. oh yeah lol ” Can I borrow your 900, and I’ll pay you back when I get my 900…?)

    that’ll go down well

  36. Kruddler! on Fri, 24th Apr 2009 1:17 pm

    37. hahahah! I’m sure there are a few loan sharks out there that are trying it!!

  37. Matty on Mon, 27th Apr 2009 1:47 pm

    38. Stupid idiots should have had all info preloaded waiting for the court case to end and then it would have been a case of just hitting a button or 10 and the payments would auto rollout,

    just looking at that list of postcodes and it looks like the WA ones are in a low socio ecenomic areas

  38. KG on Mon, 27th Apr 2009 6:27 pm

    39. my parents got theirs today and i still havent.- we live in the same house and do our tax all together with our accountant.

    40. Still waiting on mine too. At this rate it feels like I’m never going to get it. Maybe then WHEN and IF I get it, it’ll be a surprise I never expected, kinda like when Rudd announced we’d be getting 900 bucks. Well the novelty’s worn off now and I’ve stopped checking my bank account. How so anti-climatic, kinda like Twilight.

    49. Oh happy day, less than a week till end of payments and still no stimulation….this sort of thing always happens to me, and it’s direct deposit too! :(

  49. Tim on Thu, 7th May 2009 7:41 am

    50. In may 2008 George W. Bush managed to get $700 stimulus cheques out to 130 MILLION Americans in less than two weeks? WTF kevin, you only have to manage about 12 million payments… sort it out and send me my moula!

  50. kate on Fri, 8th May 2009 2:27 pm

    51. i dont get mine cause’ i got all my tax back lastyear… it was alot less that $900 too.. :(

  52. Tim on Sat, 9th May 2009 7:00 am

    53. Not true Kate… doesnt matter how much tax you paid / got refunded as long as your tax file number registered a return for the ’07-’08 financial year you’ll get a stimulus payment. Hang in there, mine just came in yesterday so they’re still rolling them out. I’m in phoenix right now so will be spending my stimulus money in vegas! Sorry Aus economy!!

  53. pretty happy on Sat, 9th May 2009 7:48 am

  55. Zag on Thu, 14th May 2009 4:03 am

    56. If you havn’t gotten it you’ll need to ring ATO.

    I see they are sending the calls to the people who don’t give a stuff about doing their jobs and so don’t check stuff or probably stuff it up.

    To those saying it’s a gift or some other BS, I’ll buy you a car and the week after you can start paying me back with interest on top, ok. as that’s really all this is.

    Bunch of complete morons this Gov is, they spend 200 billion comes to budget time and now run around trying to work out how to pay 200 billion back because there’s a short fall for some reason.

    and by Next month this so called depression won’t exist anymore.

    Last centurys depression lasted for 10 20 years and there was 90% unemployment this disrupption is nothing like the depression at all don’t know how they could even compare it.

Tell me what you're thinking...

What is this site?!

I thought it would be fun to make a website that made awesome suggestions for spending the $900 stimulus package, so this is my attempt! Have a look around, get comfortable, take your shoes off and maybe pour yourself a glass of cordial.

What Google wants you to spend your stimulus money on!!! LULZ!!!!




More things Google want you to spend your stimulus on (aka I'm trying to fill up all the white space on this page!)!
