Have you ever put an item on layaway? It is a popular way to pay for more expensive items in installments and many stores, including Walmart, offer this option. However, if layaway items sit for a long period of time without being paid, the items will go back on shelves.
Sometimes people put items on layaway for Christmas gifts with the best intentions of buying them. Then, something might happen that doesn’t allow them to purchase the item.
