Does Anybody know of any Decent Pay Weekly sites on net for Tvs

im trying to find a website or shop that allows people to buy a Tv and pay whatever they want and they get the tv after they paid for it fully ive found one for computers but not Tvs yet

i would do cash converters but they dont have the tv im after
for Example (from cash converters website)


No interest is payable and there are no added costs; the price you see is the price you pay
No credit checks required
When you’ve paid all your installments, you can take your goods away.
For example: £60 Gold chain

Deposit just £12
Then six (6) x fortnightly payments of £8 = £48
Total price you pay = £60

    Why not save for the TV yourself then when you have enough money buy it. The plus side to this is, that TV's will continue to drop in price while you are saving.

    Well you could go to somewhere like Brighthouse and get this for £3.89 a week.

    £3.89 a week for three years that is.

    Otherwise known as £606.84

    Alternatively, get an account similar to the lock-it-away until Christmas account that my credit union do - you'll get a paypoint card for weekly cash deposits, but no way to withdraw the money so that'll stop you spending it. So SAVE £3.89 a week instead.

    If you start saving next week, you can stop saving by the second week in October. By 1st November when you can unlock the savings account, you'll have enough to buy this telly straight away and have paid £3.89 a week for 36 weeks and not 156 weeks saving yourself over £466.

    I guessed at an example specification TV, the same principle works for whatever you want.

    Think about it.

    Pay for 156 weeks and get it now.
    Save for 36 weeks and get it later.

    Hope that helps.

    Put in in a savings account rather than in your pocket?
    Paying about 50% extra in interest to get it now is not exactly money-saving.
    Why not just buy a cheaper TV?
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    A £100 TV has exactly the same programmes and channels as a £680 TV.
