    What I’m trying to say is that this scheme gives the retailer an interest free loan on every purchase, courtesy of the customer, so fuck them for that.

      Don’t credit cards usually give 21 days of interest free grace period? So this is over ~9 days worth of interest? Fuck them for that? Not fuck them for exploiting gambling addiction, but for not giving the consumer their two quarters worth of interest?
