Woo hoo! One more for the Old Debt Graveyard.
Paid off $1,206 in principal to achieve that.
So $2,644 down, $756 to go in my March challenge.
$63,143 to go on my Big-Picture Goal.
And...breathless silence...I REACHED MY AD HOC GOAL!!! My very first long-term goal, set in July 2007, was to pay off $19,520 of debt by 3/31/08. My goal debt balance was $438,135. Today, 3/4/08, our debt balance is at $437,192. So in reality I've paid off $20,463 since July.
Deep breaths...time to look ahead. Besides my Big-Picture Goal of paying off all credit card and personal debt, I think I'll continue to set monthly goals so I can still track my overall debt reduction. The credit card is the most important part to get rid of, but I also want to continue to work on the rest of it.
Another credit card passes on! Ad hoc goal reached!

Hopefully, I'm right behind you. I want to pay off all my CC this month too.
I agree with tracking your progress to something. It just keeps your goals on track.
Good luck!!! and Congrats!!!
