Savings just in Time for the Holidays [Purchasing Power]

Good news! Purchasing power is offering first time SDPEBA/SDCPOA members 20% off their first order just in time for holiday shopping.  

What is Purchasing Power? 

Purchasing Power is a program, that has no credit checks or hidden fees, that allows you to use your paycheck to buy appliances, electronics, furniture, and gifts at a fixed rate rather than all at once. 

These fixed payments are clearly stated on Purchasing Power’s website (their prices reflect a 26 week pay-cycle) and is comparable to layaway or a credit card, but with none of the drawbacks. 

Unlike Layaway, you get the item as soon as you make your first payment, meaning you’ll be able to have gifts ready for the holiday season. Credit cards often have interest, hidden fees, or restrictions, Purchasing Power does not. The price listed on Purchasing Power’s site is the price you’ll pay.   

Why Use Purchasing Power? 

With times like these, you might not have the cash-on-hand to buy holiday gifts for your loved ones. By budgeting through Purchasing Power, you’ll have access to more options when it comes to presents, especially if you utilize the 20% off your first order. 

Purchasing Power also is a great way to make bigger purchases without draining your savings in the process. By budgeting with Purchasing Power, you can maintain your nest egg and make an investment in your livelihood.
