Stop over-paying the HB.
The Sainsburys card is as a very high interest rate, so you would be better off paying off that.
Or knock the barclay card on the head, ring up to cancel and see if you can get balance transfer at 6.9%, which they were offering existing customers?If you've have not made a mistake, you've made nothing0 -
i already transfered orignially barclays to sainsburys but foolishly carried on spending on it
... i know my credit raiting is not that great at the mo so im not sure about that x
Still searching .....:)
