help advise needed - balance transfer ?

I have a barclay card (with roughly 2500 balance) i want to purchase a holiday (1500) then transfer the lot to a intrest free card, with the longest time available,as i wont beable to pay this off quickly.
Can anyone tell me the best card,and how do I go about this.Do I transfer the balance 1st or purchase the holiday 1st then transfer the balance.
hoping some one can advise me ;)
many thanks

    I would suggest the virgin card is a good place to start with this card you can tranfer money to your current account then if you get a big enough limit on the virgin card you could pay off the barclay card and possibly pay for your holiday thereby having all the debt in one place for 15 months at 0%

    suggest you have a look here http://www.stoozing.com/0fees.php
