Jack & Jill Politics: The Return of LayAway

LayAway is what fiscally savvy people are doing. It’s a way not to incur debt, interest and get what you need or want at the same time. It requires patience, but anything worth having is worth being patient to get it. I had the best Christmases as a little girl growing up in Houston because my mother would get the catalogs out in September, ask my brother and me what did we want Santa to bring us for Christmas and little did I know, she went to K-Mart and Sears and put that shyt on Layaway in September, so we’d have our gifts at December.

I totally have childhood memories of my mom putting stuff on layaway at K-Mart and other stores.
