Pretty much. That 20% makes sure it will be there when you come back to get it. Someone could buy the last one before your next pay day rolls around

I would wonder how many layaways are started and then not picked up ??? But hey, it does help you save, or better yet earmark some funds when you have it I guess

I was looking at the jackets at my Stealer and over heard the salesgirl talking to a customer. He wanted some $500 leather jacket, but admitted it was more than he can afford. She sugguested he put it on layaway and pay it in pieces, and he took the jacket and they left to go to the register, so I don't know anything else. I was a little surprised at first, that they offer it, but then I thought they just made a $500 sale that they probably would have lost.
