Tax Day Blues? Enjoy Some Deals to Ease the Pain
Retailers are responding with deals to help you celebrate your tax refund, or ease the pain of owing Uncle Sam.

Whether you are 'that guy' driving to the post office at 11:59 p.m. today to hand your return to the waiting worker standing outside, or you've already filed - and spent - your return by March, retailers haven't missed the opportunity to snag a little business. Most of the offers are from nationally-based chains, and a quick survey of local establishments in Muskego haven't netted (pun intended) any results. However, we'll update this list if we hear of any specials that need to be added.
