I am so angry right now! I opened my CC statement and it said I had $114 in purchases! NO! I had $39.95 for my monthy WW fee. The rest was all interest! $75 in fricken interest! AND my interest is down almost 10% from what it used to be! No wonder I can never get ahead on this! I mean, I always knew it was ridiculousy high interest, but I guess it never sunk in b/c I was always using my card. But now that I use it for WW ONLY, it is really hitting me! Time to cancel that from my CC! No more purchases with the CC AT ALL!!!
This means that before I had a total of $139 paid off it, now it is down to $64!! And that is after paying $235 on it last month! God, that is disgusting the way they rip you off! Unless I can get a 0% interest or can afford to pay it off ASAP, no more CCs for me. I'm done with them!
Old ATTCC Balance: $3,360.12
Interest: $74.95
Monthly WW fee: $39.95

But I'm trying to remember that my overall behavior is more important than the occasional rip-off from a financial institution. It's hard to let it go, though, since I've been working so hard on tracking every penny and reducing expenses wherever possible.
We'll both get past these setbacks and keep making progress!
