Every dollar you put towards that note is giving you a return of 2.99%

You can get a much higher return in the market.

Its not a horrible idea, but keep in mind:

Let me amplify on this a bit. A 3% guaranteed return isn't bad, whereas there is no guarantee that investing it will do better or worse. That said, 3% isn't a great return either and you may be better off having the money handy or contributing more to tax-sheltered retirement accounts if you can.

At 3% I think you could really go either way.
