today in what is the deal we are tackling debt and for many it can be crippling from college students to working families, they are struggling and trying to climb out. they found that households carrying debt have $16,000 worth of it on average. the good news is that experts at the company motley fools say there are things you can do now to pay off debt. the first one seems like a no brainer, we are telling you to stop using the credit cards right now. instead swipe the debit card or use good old cash, if you need to use credit for whatever reason there are ways to do it that are smarter than others, know it's about the interest. if you look for a card now go

for the 0 apr offers and zero balance fees. and make sure you know when the apr goes up and gets the balance down before then. because then you start accruing interest. and pay more than the minimum balance, if you find you can pay more during the month do so multiple paymentses help your credit card score and climb out of debt. >> always needed advice thank you. for sharrie williams, alicia vitarelli and adam joseph i'm brian taff. hope you'll join me with sharrie and adam for a full hour of "action news" at 10:00. now here is rick williams with a look ahead at 5:00. >> hi sharrie, thank you. coming up next on "action news" atta 5:00 police are trying to track down two suspects. after a home was broken into
