Also get your banker to look into RRSPs.

On a seperate note, for your new tank build you could try to claim it on your 2009 tax return and consider it as home Reno as that'll get you 13+% tax credit back up to $1300. Disclaimer: should talk to tax professional or CRA for further interpretation of 2009 budget.

I do already have RRSPs. She had me do that right away when I joined the bank.

I am going to look into that Reno claim. Its funny because when they announced it, my fiance said right away I wonder if you can claim the new tank stand since its kind of a house reno. I might be bolting it to the wall in one spot too which I figure should be considered a reno...maybe not though
