Rebate Check Image

Hi! My name is Linda and I work in the marketing department at eons.com. Part of my job is to keep eons.com in the press. Right now, they're asking what eons.com Members plan to do with their government rebate checks. Have you thought about it? Will you spend it on bills or on something fun?

Thanks to all of you who took the Eons Rebate Check Survey to let us know--more than 700 of you! We had some really interesting results which we released on Tuesday, May 13.

The poll was conducted between May 6-12 and asked boomers, “How do you plan on using the money from your rebate check.” The poll showed that more than 60 percent of boomers are either saving their rebate checks, using the money to pay bills, or are spending it on necessities like food and gas. A mere 18 percent are spending the money on consumer goods, travel or entertainment.

A few newspapers have already picked up the data from our poll like New York Daily News and Hispanic Business.

Thanks again for all your help!
