I think most people will do the exact same thing they always do with their refund -
Sadly, I think Steve is right, I hear my coworkers hoping for a huge refund and the plans are typically buying stuff they wouldn't be able to afford otherwise. They look at me funny when I say I am assigning the whole thing to paying off debt.

I have to admit until I read this thread I thought a big refund was a good thing.

Now, I maintain for some IT IS indeed a good thing. I have a couple of friends that say that is the only way they get some money on their savings account. It is a forced savings. When they get their refund, they send half to savings, half to spending.
