    Yes, I definitely volunteered to get an interest free loan on my groceries. It absolutely had nothing to do with my inability to pay in full immediately

      From a purely mathematical perspective, if you are a perfectly rational consumer you would put everything on an interest-free buy-now-pay-later plan and then squirrel the money into a high-yield savings account, then pocket the interest.

        That’s actually what I do lol. Unfortunately, I live paycheck to paycheck, so it only makes me around $10/month, but hey, it’s something.
