Still considerably better than the 10% that my HELOC was at previously, and now I'm paying off the principle. Credit cards are a very useful tool, if you can use them smartly. The key with this plan is to not miss (or be late) with any payments. I did this exact thing, although I wasn’t able to get a 0% balance transfer - I had to settle for a 2.9%.

I think it's also very important to note that if you are going to try to "surf" 0% intro APR offers, you need to make sure that your credit score stays high. You could qualify for a great 0% deal one year, then, when it comes times to transfer to a new 0% deal, your may get rejected if your FICO score has declined significantly.
