WWYD?  I have $850 left to put towards a cc balance (I paid off one this morning ) and I'm between 2 of my cards Tj maxx has a 1775 balance at 29% interest Chase has a 1410 balance at 24.WWYD? I have $850 left to put towards a cc balance (I paid off one this morning ) and I'm between 2 of my cards Tj maxx has a 1775 balance at 29% interest Chase has a 1410 balance at 24. 49% Help me decide! My husband and I do a mix of the snowball and avalanche between our cards for our payoff plan, so I'm not partial to one or the other. I would just love to reduce my monthly bills by a few dollars

I would work on eliminating the one with the highest monthly payment that will free up the most to go toward other debts.

Highest interest rate always wins for me though when they are so close in balance!

Chase and then snowball the payment from the card you paid off today onto it too. You’ll knock it out super quick and the can focus on tj maxx

I’d toss it towards chase or whichever has the highest minimum payment. Frees up that money to put towards the next card once it’s paid off.

I'd say TJ Maxx then it will move up to the snowball order which is great because it's also higher interest.
