I did a little bit of both. I finally crawled out from my credit card debt, but I also used the money to buy a new laptop so I could finally retire the one that was 5 years old.
I'm also making money from 2 different pay sources. The extra is going into my much needed weeklong vacation in Virginia Beach and Williamsburg in June.

That's what we did.
We placed a small cushion in savings, stockpiled grocery sale items and paid ahead/double on some debt.
