Sooo after running up over $7700 in credit card debt when I was in school (may have been that shopping habit of mine) I just paid it down to ZERO five minutes ago!!! And promptly called the company and got them to lower my limit to $1000. I don't want to give up the card completely because it's the only one I have and want it in case of emergencies, but I don't want it to get out of control again. With the new limit, even if I do use it, I should have no problem paying off the limit in two or maybe three paycheques.
THIS FEELS SO GOOD!!!!
Now. Just have to pay off the two student loans, bank loan, AND hubbies LOC. Not to mention the mortgage. Eff.
Re: Big news re: my credit card!

I'm at about where you are (so is Greg, BAH!) so hopefully in a year you'll see this exact message from us!
