I can't decide whether this is a horribly depressing sign of the times that people need to pay off 1 nights dinner over 4 weeks, or if this is some stupid executive person thinking this is what people want when they say they can't afford to get food delivery

Por qué no los dos, I guess. But seriously, what the actual fuck

Did the math on a few "4 payments of x" and they were like 150% the actual purchase price.

Yeah, in this case it looks like they bake the price increase into the payments so they can claim it is "interest free".
