I am sure they want you to have a job too, and not too high debt-to-income. It is simply another form of credit, after all.

Yeah I figured the job but wasn't sure if the credit score had to be at a certain number.

Two days ago you said you'd already made a deal:

"Did very good tonight in Sleepy's

I was approved for 12 month finance promotional deal for a Queen Size at $971 including delivery, taxes and setup. I will be required to pay $80 a month for 12 months and only then will it be Interest added to the balance. The first payment is due 4/21.

Feeling Good!!!!.

That's confusing. Did something go wrong?

Let's hope your credit score is a lot higher than your sleep number.

The "Firmness" of the bed, the higher the number the firmer it is.

Interesting numbers/Payment schedule. It sets the OP up for paying back interest on the entire purchase if he uses Sleepy's Payment schedule.

$80 x 12 = $960 of $971.

So since its no paid in full (the $11) at the end of the 12 months, they will go back and charge interest in the whole amount from day one, at what? 24%??
