Lowes paid off 1 year ago

We recently put about $350 on our Lowes card for house stuff, but we sold quite a few things on eBay to pay for things we bought. I transferred the money out of Paypal, and then to the Lowes card. I paid it off before it ever accrued any interest charges, which I’m very happy about.

We actually have a little bit of extra money these days, so I’ve got to make myself send some of it away to those credit card people. I always pay at least a little bit extra than the minimum payment, but I’m trying to pay even bigger chunks now.

My current goal for this goal is to pay off my Gap, American Eagle, and Victoria’s Secret cards. There really isn’t too much on them, maybe a hundred or two a piece (except VS, which is more like 3 or 4). This shouldn’t take me too long. I like trying to focus on smaller pieces of this goal, so I can feel like I’m accomplishing something now, since this will take a while to finish completely.

Now, now now now...

just ask your man. There ain’t nothing wrong with a lady carrying a little bit of a balance on her Victoria’s Secret card. A diva’s gotta look fab-u-lous!

It’s true wisdom like this that becomes lost in the hubub of daily life. I like it :)

haha

I’m not going to stop using it, of course, but I would like to get the balance down before I use it anymore, although I am going to a friend’s lingerie shower next month, and I have $20 in gift cards that I earned from using my card in the first place, so I’m sure I’ll have to use it again soon…at least this one more time.

But you really are bad, bad trying to tell me it’s okay to use my card!! Tsk, tsk. You’re not helping at all!
