Default Re: The High Cost Of Rent-To-Own

The only time I have found it to be reasonable to rent to own was a washer and dryer. I was able to rent one for a brief time while I saved for a new/used one. The cost of going to the laundramant was HUGE compared to the cost of renting the units. The rent was about $20 a week while the laundramat was well over $30 not to mention the going there and what not. We have 4 kids plus us and when the older kid comes home. But again we did it only briefly while we got together the money for a new one. We were able to purchase one for $200 at home depot. it wasn't the greatest one but it worked! and still does 2 years later.
