    15 years ago we bought from Sharps when they had a finance offer of a real discount if you took their 3 yr finance deal. We took the finance deal and then paid it off after 1 month to avoid the massive interest rates. When we came to re order for another room a couple of years later, the sharps rep was astounded at the price we had paid.
    Astounded you paid so little or so much?!

    So little, I assume. Very few people that take up a credit option are savvy enough to make it work for them.
    No man is worth crawling on this earth.

    So much to read, so little time.
