    Hi racetozero,
    Have you looked to see if you can do a 0% balance transfer?  
    Even if one wasn't open to you 6 months ago, banks are fickle and new offers pop up (just not as much as they used to).
    I just kept checking the MSE credit club for offers. Well worth a look, if you haven't already.
    Good luck with your debt busting!
