Many, many years ago. When we went shopping...I would then take the kiddies and went elsewhere while hubby put "Santa" in layaway. The little sweeties never knew. :) Also, they never found the Christmas stuff around the house. Now...that's the best situation ever!I can see where it will be THE thing for the times ahead. No credit cards and cash only will be the ticket!!!! Funny.......it actually used to be the normal! God bless America and our Military Troops!!!

I can remember Wal-Mart, pro-layaway petitions being hyped after the decision in 2006 to remove them, only to see Wal-Mart break into the credit card business. Of course, they were looking into becoming a financial institution at the time. I'm betting all the major retailers bring layaway programs back prior to the Thanksgiving shopping season. If you can't get cheap credit, businesses will be forced back into the pre-credit card economy wouldn't you say? I’m with you when you say the major retailers will be reviving their layaway plans.

Looks like a lot things that people thought were "dead" are coming back when times are this tough.
