First off, I fully agree with you. But how people are lured in is that there is no interest if you pay on time, so it's advertised as interest-free. But obviously the business model is built upon people not paying on time, and as such one should calculate that cost into it…
This works when talking about seadoos and lifted trucks. When it is food the title of "fool" goes from lendee to lender.
