First the savings: $25 went into the EF, so 2011 EF progress is $3357.78, total EF is $11869.73.
And AS's other student loan hit, with $60 going to principal. That means our July debt payment is $1943, surpassing our goal of $1900! I'm very excited this payment made it just under the wire, because sometimes it gets bumped to the next month. I have automatic debit so I don't control that.
I noticed (because I'm a dork) that the payment was 9 cents less than usual. I checked the interest rate, and it's gone down from 2.25% to 2%! Of course with only $610 left on the loan it doesn't make any difference, but it is kind of interesting because several of our loans have variable interest rates, so I wonder if any others will go down a bit.
Anyway, now that I've hit our July goal, I may set up August tomorrow, since I'll be busy all weekend.
Huzzah, hit the debt goal! plus some savings progress
