How Does Layaway Work for Bedroom Furniture?

Layaway is a term borrowed from overseas retail that many British shoppers now use to describe paying for furniture in stages before collecting it. When the purchase is a full bedroom, with a bed, storage and cabinets to consider, the appeal is obvious, because the total is larger than a single item and the room usually needs to work as a set.
