well, for those of you who did not read the small print or pay attention to the part that said you may get up to....this amount....you may be in for a big surpise when your check does come. If you have not gone to the IRS website and used the Economic Stimulus Calculator to figure out what your check amount really will be then I suggest that you do. Apparently the media failed to add that to all their reports of the amounts, we expected what they told us of the 1200 for married and 300 for each child, what they failed miserably to add was that you needed to use the calculator to get the correct amounts for yourself. So those of you counting on big checks better check again!!
