    I think it would probably be the best one to pay off as 38% is criminal. Try and get rid of the high interest ones first. Have you raised the money to cover all your debts from the sale?
    You need to get rid of anything first that puts interest on top, i suppose it may be satisfying to get rid of the small ones but if they don't charge late paymnt fees or anything try stretching them until the ones that add interest on are paid. Obviously the car has to be paid every month or you'll lose it!
    Is the avon a cat/online/doorstep?
    You really need to get rid of comet and dfs before they skyrocket.
    Have you had a look at the old style board - if you can save a few quid a month on washing powder (esp with baby!!) and ten pounds a week on food shopping that would be your next debt 'paid'.
    Good luck to you, keep your chin up!
