    Makes me wonder how people are managing it.

    I get paid every 2 weeks and I go through and pay down or pay off all my cards every payday.

    When I put them back in my wallet, I put the paid off cards in first, and the not paid off cards upside down so I don’t unintentionally add more debt to them.

    As of last Friday, I have two cards that are not fully paid off. One with a 0% loan on a large electrical project, the 0% deal expires in April, but I expect to pay it off in January.

    The other has a brand new $1,000 debt because I just paid my Christmas lights install company.

      You really aren’t the average person if you can pay $1000 to have your Christmas lights installed. I’m trying to even envision the Christmas light situation at your house that could possibly cost that much to put up. It must be impressive.
