    Stick with interest free, but if I were you, I'd cancel the cards that would be paid off, to avoid the temptation of spending.

    It depends on what you owe on them I guess. If you can get 0% for 12 months, put them all there and try to pay off as much as you can within that period. If you do keep one of the ones you transfer the balance from, and if you use it, ensure you pay the balance off in full each time.
