Glad you have extra $$$. Hard to come by, these days.
Yes, we had thought of that. We have 20 yrs left, would save $2600. total in interest and 4 yrs on the contract. However, if I can get fabric, make quilts and sell them.......or use them as gifts for our 11 grandchildren and 5 children, I think we'd be ahead....:-D
