    its only for people who earned less than $100k for the year ended 30 June 2008. Its also on a sliding scale so its $900 if you earned less than $80k, and then $500 if you earned between $80k and $90k and $300 if you earned $90k and $100k.

    Not really sure how everyone blowing money on consumer goods in one month is going to stimulate spending long term but hey, Im not a politician.
