5 Fun Ways to Spend Your Tax Refund

If you’re like most of us, you can expect a nice tax refund this year, estimated to average $2,900. Here are some fun ways to spend it at The Shops at Columbus Circle — from fitness to travel to entertainment. Time to treat yourself!

 

For the Culture Lover

Spring for the Duets Patrons Program at Jazz at Lincoln Center, which entitles you to prime seats, advance sales, private rehearsals, special events and more. Most of it is even tax-deductible. Isn’t it great to support the arts? Plus, enjoy a few headlining sets at Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola. Now all we need are a couple of outfits to wear

For the Jetsetter

Want to make a powerful statement? The Carbon Fiber Elvington International Carry On from Tumi does it. Pick up the Microsoft Surface 3 laptop with HD screen, which weighs a mere 1.37 pounds. You’ll be ready to own the road.

For the Hostess with the Mostest

Talk about #wishlist. Williams-Sonoma has you covered with the Marvel High-Efficiency Dual Zone Wine Cellar, serving as the ultimate cooler for all those reds and whites. Holding up to 40 bottles under LED lightning, it will impress your book club in no time.

For the Active One

Budget for a full year of monthly dues at Equinox Fitness Club and a pair of Adidas Ultra Boost Running Shoes from the NY Running Company. And commit to a better you by the time April rolls around again.

For the Homebody

Splurge on Bose’s Lifestyle SoundTouch 525 entertainment system. It offers surround sound for the big game or for a spontaneous Spotify-playlisted party — because we’re all about that bass for every corner of the room.
