Is stoozing still worth it?

Hi everyone,

I used to stooze in the olden days when balance transfer fees were unheard of.
Since then I got into debt, and stopped stoozing for a while. I am finally debt free again :T and I was thinking about trying the stoozing game again.

My question is this: is it still worthwhile to stooze with BT fees taking a big cut of your profits?

Well there are still people on this board, so some must think so. Go on then, convince me!

    Keep a look out for long repayment periods and capped BT fees.
    Good deals are starting to dry up though.

    I stopped 'fast' stoozing ages ago; I've taken to slow stoozing now - 0% on purchases offers for at 12 months e.g.
