We're paying down our debt over here too. Our tax returns went to paying off my car (largest interest rate by far) and we've done away with 2 credit cards. We still have a ways to go but now we can throw my car payments at the rest of the credit card debt and finally start building our savings up BIG. YAY!! We’re paying down our debt over here too.

It's tough to go on a debt diet, but we started doing something similar a couple years ago and it makes a world of difference. It's really worth it. I hope you continue to take pride in and enjoy this adventure! Congratulations!

I've thought about doing that, but it's hard to get The Hubs on board! I'm not sure he could live without ESPN in all it's forms. Thanks for stopping by my blog :) Us Jills have to stick together. Funny story- in HS there was another Jill with my same middle name, and we were both seriously dating guys who had the EXACT same name(First, Middle, AND Last!) That is so great!

It is ALL about the power of small. In the past I always used to think "Well it's only $20 or $30 or $15." But now I have realized if I cut out ALL of those small little expenses they add up to $1500! Lisa,

Just finished reading "power of small" (new ad book about lots more than advertising) and this is such a perfect example of thinking small to get huge results. I don't know quite how you get the discipline... guess I'll have to keep reading!
