Store Card Debt

Hi all, my missus has built up some debt which I've only just found out about.

And to be honest, it's the old interest which is building up month by month rather than the actual stuff she originally bought.

Anyway, I want to get rid of this debt ASAP, but can't afford to pay it off in one go.

Any advice as to methods of paying it off?

0% interest credit card perhaps? Then just pay it all off within the time that it is 0% for? If so, are there any good deals at the moment?
