For those of you all that are online shoppers....

Have you come across the "Bill Me Later" option??? I was shopping around and noticed it first @ eastbay.com. I looked it up and found it's website.... http://www.bill-me-later.com/wss/index.do And also this link about the whole concept http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/dec2005/tc20051230_391101.htm?campaign_id=topStories_ssi_5

Now, I know the whole idea is not new, but I've never seen it used for just about anything at certain websites (i.e overstock.com, hotels.com, expedia.com)

What do you guys think about it?

Has anyone purchased anything using this option?

Makes it easier to spend money that you don't have.

That's why I pay for everything in cash (except gas)- you can see the money leaving your hands, and know exactly how much you have left.
