I just wanted to give a heads up to some people that are looking to get some games but want to maybe space out the cash flow. QVC.com (yeah the home shopping channel) has this thing called "Easy Pay". New customers can use it without a credit check or anything. You just need a credit card and a phone number.
What they do with Easy Pay is add up the cost of the item, shipping, and if there's any sales tax in your state. They divide the total by however many payments the item is on (it could be anywhere from 2-6). So if the total is $20 and it's on 5 easy payments, you just pay $4 at the time.
They ship it to you immediately, and each month charge your card $4 until it's paid off. It's not layaway, since you get the item for the first payment in about a week. You also have 30 days to return the item, even used (return shipping deducted from your refund, or you can pay to send it back yourself--unless it's defective, in which case, they'll pay to return it).
Tomorrow, everything will be on easy pay (I'm not sure how many, it used to be 5 payments, but I think recently they've knocked it down to 3). They sell games and systems, so I just wanted y'all to know about it.
I will say, they put the systems in bundles and you have to pay shipping, so it winds up being more expensive than just buying it all at once at the store (I think their Wii U Delux bundle is like $500, but the games are normal cost mostly). If you're dying for a certain game or new system and just can't justify paying full price up front right, though, maybe it'll be worth it to you. If you're interested, I'd say get your shopping done at midnight EST, because they get busy and sell stuff out really fast (I speak from experience; my mom's been doing this since 1986).
They also have philosophy beauty and jammies and it's the best thing the world to get a box full of bubble bath, new jammies, and a new game...probably just me though. *zomgstuffonsalefullgirlmodeactivate*
