That wasnt directed at you UCgal so much as just a general comment. As you said, lay-away made sure the pants were there when there was a significant possibility that they may not be in 3 weeks. So I can understand that, especially for a teenager. But now, why put your washer and dryer, or dishes, or whatever else people are buying, on layaway? It isnt like washer model XXX #1 is gonna wash any better or worse than washer model XXX #2.
