          Pay in 4 is usually zero interest, but they'll stack heavy late fees if you miss it.

          "why can't we get a mortgage?"

          "Well I bought a hot dog on a payment plan for a laugh, and I defaulted on a 38 cent payment"

          "oh no"

                How does it handle the half-penny? Does it round up or down, collect the remainder at the end, pull an Office Space, what?

                    The POS system at my bakery rounds up when it’s for a customer (getting half of a loaf of bread for example) and down when it calculates the 50% employee discount. That alone has a weirdly huge impact on my job satisfaction.

                        They generally don't no.

                        They get commission from the stores (because quite likely they wouldn't have made the sale if the option wasn't available), and also late fees

                                  the amount of consumer goodwill that statement bought easily pays for any losses from the hotdogs. companies seem hellbent on torching their brand reputation for short-term gains these days. little gestures go a long way.
