There's another option - a better option - get the March "refund" numbers as close to zero as possible (heck, I'd almost prefer to pay $50 to $100), then put $20 to $50 per paycheck into a Christmas Club, or some other forced savings - get into that habit, eventually, your money will work for you. Increase it to $100, $200 or more per paycheck and you'll wonder why you ever let Uncle Sam hold your money interest free.
