I think they have their own "Future Shop" in-store credit card which you can apply for and get "XX amount of months" no interest no payments as long as it's over $300 I believe.

I think 12 months to pay (no interest) is standard but I could be wrong.

You could use a visa/mastercard but it'll be the same as other purchases.

6 months with minimum 5 doller payments no interest is the norm now.

12 months financing is + 39.99 admin fee

pretty sweet deal IMO

Makes me buy more shit than I actually need

edit: if your even missing $1 on the end date of said date. You get interest on entire amount from day 1 for xx amount of months.

example. Bought 600 items for 3 months no interest no payments. Owed 200 left on balance, got charged about $55 interest.

Not trying to sound like a dick, but I know I will. If you are needing/wanting to finance a TV, chances are you shouldn't.

so i guess its not auto payment? you have to manualy pay every month? that sucks... i wish everything was auto payment, would make life so much easier

PornMaster 12-06-2011 12:06 AM

you can make it auto payment via online banking
same way you would auto set your phone bill etc etc

card is easy to get if you already have a cc.
Just go customer service and they ask couple questions and you have a temp card ready to use

Really not trying to bag on you, but aren't you the same guy who made a thread worrying about how to finance ICBC insurance because you might not have a couple hundred dollars to cover the monthly payment?

If so, last thing you probably want to do is to finance a relatively small purchase like a TV, especially when you already have one.

The sales can't be that great can they? If it was me I would just save up and buy one out full so I don't have to worry about payments.

Scizz is right.. if you need to finance a TV, you probably shouldn't be buying one, especially if you're 'upgrading your 40"'

good luck with your being part of the 99% goals of 2011.
