25% interest?????

June 7th, 2012 at 09:55 pm

Last month we bought all the appliances for our spec house. Sears was having a big sale, so we bought them there.
I got the bill this afternoon. If we do not pay the bill in full, the interest rate is 25!!!
Who in the world pays 25% interest on anything? I am amazed! I didn't even know anyone could charge that much!

    Store credit cards, including Sears and JCPenney, are notorious for high interest rates. They lure you in with discounts and preferred customer coupons. All that is great if you pay your bill in full, but it is very deceptive to the unwary.

    Ouch indeed. But a payday lender charges far, far more in interest than 25%. You have to be rich to be poor these days.

    Indeed, baselle. Have you seen ads for this company? http://oklahomacity.bbb.org/post/western-sky-financial-yes-its-expensive-13280
