The 0% credit is through the individual dealer, they call it revolving
credit, depending on how much you owe, you give him anywhere from $10 to
$30 and up a week. Currently I give $25, and I owe about $450 at this time.
This is generally for hand tools. Large ticket items are on a Credit from
Snap-on itself and does have an interest rate.

My dealer also knows me quite well and knows I buy "used equipment"
sometimes he has to repo items, then sells them at discount. Some pople
upgrade a MAC set of sockets to a snap on. Some people go for bigger
sandblasters or tool boxes, I generally pick up used.

Needless to say, my garage is fairly well equipped...........

In ground lift, tire machine, welders, sand blaster, torches, etc.......

I do not do this for a living..........

What's the price comparison between Snap-on and Craftsman? I have always
not 
bought Snap-on because of an impression that they are 'too expensive'. 
However, if they do 0% credit, that sounds interesting...
