Rent-to-Own Store Dangers

Rent-to-own seems affordable but costs far more long-term.

The Math

  • $500 TV may cost $1,500+ over payment term
  • Miss a payment and lose everything paid
  • No ownership until final payment
  • Interest rates equivalent to 100%+ APR

Better Alternatives

Save up, buy used, or use layaway programs.
