I also didn't snowball it, at least not on purpose. I'd have been out of debt even faster had I done so. And I did get a second job, delivering pizzas. Programmer by day, pizza guy by night. In addition to having more money coming in, I had less time to spend it, meaning I kept more of it.

Whatever works for you...
I did the delivery gig too, and that's been the most effective at cutting my balances. Like you said, more $$ coming in + less time to spend it. I just got burned out on 60-70 hour weeks. I'm rested up now & willing to do it again, I've just been looking for something different for a 2nd job.
