I saw this article posted elsewhere, and some people are trying to spin this as being no big deal. I think this is quite a big deal and found it shocking.

I didn't even know that was an option for groceries. That is quite concerning.

Wasn't this a huge thing before the great depression for some reason? I know credit in general was, but I thought I heard groceries were specifically for some reason.

This is not a good trend.

Living on credit in general is not a good idea.

And before people come in and say "I use my credit card all the time and just pay it in full every month!". You're not the people this will be an issue for.

Yes. You could also do COD where you buy something to get delivered and pay the courier for it.
