RE:RE:RE:RE:Who is out there telling our story...?Some retailers are their own banks; Crappy Tire being a good example. You can now buy things like hockey sticks and fishing rods and finance them over a 6 month period. And where does your monthy payment go? Onto your Crappy Tire credit card of course, so you can then pay those debts with debts.
I even read that there is a pizza chain in the US that now lets you finance pizzas over a 4 week period. What a great economy!
