    Great update! I like how you show what amount went to interest!! I think I am going to incorporate that instead of the percentage amount of my interest so you can actually see how much went to interest. Thanks for sharing

    Do you have a plan for payoff when the introductory 0% offers expire? Otherwise the fact that you’re paying zero interest right now is irrelevant because it will all get added once the 0% expires. Can you take out a home equity loan to consolidate? Maybe even roll the cars into the loan ad well since those are gonna out you under water next month.

    • @mrssummersbudgets

      The only card we have currently that would acquire interest is home depot bc it is a store card but we do plan to pay it off before Mar 2025 which is when the promotion expires. The other cards expire around the same time so we will probably just see what kind of offers are available on cards we don't have a balance on to do a transfer and pay the transfer fee. My credit score has been going up, I've gained over 100 points since we got the cars so we're still planning on refinancing them around September to see if we can get the payment reduced. We don't want to add cc to our mortgage bc if we couldn't pay our cc payment it'd be OK in the grand scheme..send us to collections.. but if we couldn't pay our mortgage they could take our home.
