6. All New Tech
Those whose current state of tech is outdated may be looking to use their tax refund for a trade up. Even the best in tech can add up to less than the average refund.
For example:
- New iPhone 8 (from Apple): $699.
- Latest iPad 32 GB (from Best Buy): $329 + free $25 gift card.
- Macbook Pro 13.3″ 2.4 GHz Core i5 (from Ebay): $499
Grand total: $1652.98 (Including 8.25% Houston taxes for all sales. Buying online can sometimes avoid these.)
