Re: wedding gifts
Using some of it on a new bedroom set and couch - we've already found what we want, so we know exactly how much we're going to use toward that.
The rest: savings!

Probably going to use some of it to renovate our bathroom, then the rest is going right in the bank.

Re: wedding gifts
We plan to save most of it for a downpayment on a house and add to it for while. We have to take some of it and pay off some bills, but no more then 2-3k

Re: wedding gifts
downpayment for a house!! (towards the downpayment anyway!!) Its harder here to get a house. There are no programs or anything to help out unless you are very poor and then its small houses of this wood material or now they are starting with cement.
Minimum downpayment is at least 30-40%!! The only good thing is that houses are a lot cheaper here than in NY, but the pay is also much lower so its kinda a vicious cycle!!
