Did not see this when I went to Hamburg, PA store. I have their
credit card and accumulate points towards purchases. They will also
send you discounts of maybe $20 off an $100+ order and even bigger
discounts to go to their store. Don't know or care about interest
rates because I pay off cards total bill when I get it.

Rumors of store coming to DE, where I live and there is no sales tax.
Now, I find it cheaper to order through catalog with high gas prices
and 7% PA sales tax.
