My paycheck is DD (Direct Deposit) so on paydays I just check my account to make sure it was deposited for the right amount. As I mentioned before, I often get extra money that is travel reimbursement. Well, this week I didn't have any extra in my pay, and I didn't even think about it. Then today I open the mail and I have a check for $248.60 from work! Milage reimbursement! YAY!
Since I hadn't had any plans for this extra $$ because I had totally forgotten about it, I am going to deposit this whole check into my CC account/savings. If I need to use a bit for bills, it's there for me. If not, it just helps me get down the CC debt all the more quicker. And if I put it right into the savings, I won't be tempted to spend it on other things, like I would if it was just sitting in my checking account (which my ATM/debit card is attached to).
Watch out CC Debt! I'm coming for you!
Old Savings (CC Debt) Total: $720.84
Added $248.60 milage reimbursement
New Savings (CC Debt) Total: $969.44
On the Hunt for CC Debt...
