This discussion about auto-pay made me think about the way I pay my card. I always pay off my card in full every month and it's usually within a day of the end of the billing cycle. The due date is at least 3+ weeks away still. I suppose you could say I'm losing the interest on that money when I could be keeping it for a few more weeks and earning that interest, but the interest on my checking account is laughable anyway. The difference would be measured in pennies. Is there any other downside to paying off a card at the billing cycle end as opposed to waiting until closer to the due date?
