NEW YORK — Wal-Mart is bringing back something its customers have been asking for since the Great Recession: layaway.
The world's largest retailer, which ditched the pay-as-you-go plans in 2006, is rolling out a holiday layaway option from Oct. 17 through Dec. 16. Wal-Mart is following rivals that brought back the service during the thick of the recession.

Hmmmmm maybe Wal-mart has FINALLY realized they screwed up by taking away layaway. Even if it is only for th holidays, the article says they may extend layaway throught out the year. :)
