The only thing I have to remember to pay each month is my credit card, which is what we use to pay all of our bills. So far I've had no problems, and I love racking up the points on my card

I have my auto loan and a platinum credit card on auto pay. I always just pay off the credit card each month instead of just letting it pull the minimum $10.

Also, we put nearly EVERYTHING else on our Discover card so we can get the 2% cash back. The only thing we don't put on the Discover is our purchases at Target, which we put on our Target card and receive 5% off all purchases. At the end of the month, we completely pay off both of these cards.

Oh yah, we don't dig debt!

I used to have about 10k in cc debt and found myself in a unique position that enabled me to pay it off and never look back.

Interesting. That could come in handy.

also, I don't know who do you bank with, but, for instance, Navy fed has a bill payment option where they send the payment on the day you set up to anything you want to for the amount you want to and you can always see and follow every transaction on your account. I use this because sometime either I forget to pay something, or I just cant because of my job.
