This is a great idea. Unfortunately I am not in a position to join in at the moment - may be next year :rolleyes: .
Anyway, just wanted to say that I do the same (but in reverse) to pay off the credit card I have with my bank. It's amazing how every little helps cos the balance on this card is going down so much quicker than my other two.
Good luck with this xxx0 -
