Japan's Economic Stimulus

The Japanese government has been dishing out money to all citizens including foreigners in an attempt to get folks to buy stuff. The economic stimulus package is 12,000 yen (currently about 125 USD) and I already got mine although I have not cashed it yet.

McDonalds Japan is selling a booklet of coupons for exactly 12,000 yen which is worth 20,000 yen of health food - looks like they want a slice of that stimulus package. The video below shows you just how much food that is - enough to feed 29 people.


What would you do with your 12,000 yen? Is your government also dishing out money for your folks?
