I got $140 from fed and $70 from state...that is all I paid out this year. Since I only made $8k last year, I changed my W2s to exempt, which means no fed/state withholding. So that's only what I paid prior to the change, and what I paid at the restaurant before they did it right (even tho I claimed exempt they were still takin taxes out), and I get it all back (only made $6k this year). Had I not claimed exemption I might have gotten a bigger return (around $500 probably), but I needed the money when it came in my checks, not now, heh.
