    Not to harp, but aren't you paying some to your other debt as well. The numbers will go down there as well.

    Yeah, I'm paying my other debt down too but one of my goals is to get all my credit cards down to half their limits. Since I still have x-mas gifts to buy I picked the one closest to the 50% mark which is the Victoria's Secret card. That's the card I'm really focusing on this month.

    What are the interest rates of your debts? I love Dave Ramsey but I disagree with his pay the smallest balance, I am totally about paying off the one with the highest interest rate.

    Great Blog!

    I always find December hard when it comes to money. It's that time of the month to pull money out of your ass Smile

    I agree with CouponAddict. Try to pay off the one with the highest interest rate because that's what's eventually gonna cost you more through time.

    I say pay off the one you hate the most. Forget the biggest or smallest. I'm not kidding. Your biggest pitfall in this sort of adventure is giving up. Think of your debt as a snake that you want to stomp. When you stomp that snake, you get stoked, and what do you want to do? Stomp another snake! And another. And another. That's the mindset you want to get into.
