This week's theme is Goals.
My goal for this year: Pay off my credit card debt which is about 12,000.00 dollars
The credit card debt is a huge monkey on our back. We are going to transfer the credit card balances to a no interest card for 24 months and make it a priority to get rid of the debt.That being said, we are in the process of buying a new home, and will be renting out out old home. The home we have a contract on is a short sale, and you never know how long that can take. While we are currently living at our old home, we will tighten our belts and throw all the money we can to our debt! When we do get to move.... there will be some costs associated with that. We do have some money put away for that purpose.
Penny is also having a Blogiversary giveaway with lots of great gift cards that now total 300.00 dollars. This is a great way to get a jump on any upcoming birthdays, anniversaries or even Christmas! She has a great blog that provides information that can help you save your money. Stop by and check it out, you won't be sorry!
I will be cashing in my Swagbucks for Amazon Gift Cards to use for future gift purchases.
