PAID IN FULL!!!

That's right!!  You read it correctly :-)

Today is Car Loan Freedom, baby!!!

2 years ahead of schedule, the loan is now paid in full.  I have an at home day today so I slipped down (3 blocks) to the bank and put the final payment in on my vehicle. The teller smiled, leaned in, and whispered those sweet, seductive words "Your balance is zero".

The paper she handed me reaffirmed that fact. A sweet little sexy $0 at the bottom.

As I drove home, I patted her dash and praised her "You're all paid for now!!", with a finger crossed warning "Please don't start breaking down, now".

When I got home I logged onto my online account to check the balance. The account was gone. I didn't even get the sweet bliss of seeing that online.

I had forgotten it did the same thing when my consolidated loan was paid off too LOL

It feels good to have it paid off. I have learned a lot over the course of this loan and I am so grateful for the cheers and support of my blogging family. thank you so much.

Stay tuned for "Loan by the numbers" with more specific number details for those who like that sort of thing.

When I saw the title of your post I started to smile, it was almost as if I had accomplished something.

So thanks for making my day and well done on saving yourself 2 years off your loan ( I bet your bank manager hates you )I had every confidence in your budgeting and saving skills you teach me something new with every post, keep it up.

Can't wait for you to crunch some more numbers....

Thank you all so much for your congrats. It means a lot to have a cheering squad. I mean, I told my mom and she said "well that's good", but not being privy to all the details (that you all have), it wasn't quite the same.

It will be good to have it off my 'get that paid off' mental list.
