Wink Beat the Credit Card Company

It just dawned on me how to beat the credit card company at their own game in regards to their 2 month interest rules. I usually pay mine in full, but every once in awhile, something happens...

I am using one credit card this month. Next month, I will change cards. So I am using the card only every other month so they don't zap me with interest based on 2 months.

This is a little hard to explain, but I will try. I just found out this myself, so I'm not an expert. If you pay off your credit card in full this month, but you had a balance last month, then next month you will pay interest even though it had been paid in full last month.
I hope that makes sense, if not, maybe someone can do a better job of explaining.
