That feels very much like an ivory tower opinion. Payday loans, layaway plans, etc are very popular for many who live paycheck to paycheck.

layaway is just stupid. if you can afford to make a monthly payment and get it in six months you can save the money for six months and collect the interest. living pay check to pay check doesn't enter into it. if you cant afford it you can't afford it.
