Unless your pockets are deep always look harder when you see 0%. Firms do it in two ways one good for you and one not so good.

First, take the money you would make by the interest and put it on the goods and then shout about the 0% interest. You end up paying.

Second, do it as a loss leader to get people through the door - potential bargin.

Take the time to see what price the goods are elsewhere (individually if needed) then you can see if its a bargin. Then do as you are doing an even if it is a bargin ask, "do i need it?"

I can assure you that what ever you buy now you will want to buy something else in the coming years and again and again and again.
