Default Re: Ever take advantage of 0% financing?

The thing to keep in mind is that 0% financing IS NOT free. Generally, you pay a higher price for the merchandise if you take the interest-free offer. For example, most furniture stores give a 10% discount if you pay cash upfront, so that 0% deal is really costing you 10% of the purchase price.
