You walk into the store, get the items you want, take them to the lay-by counter, then they'll get your details, deposit and add a ~$2 fee to it.
You then have to go into any bigw with your docket at any register and make a payment at least once a fortnight. The amount is up to you to budget it out to fit within the lay-by period. You could pay $5 one time, then $500 the next. As long as you pay it off at lay-by ending.
There are also time limits to the overall length of lay-by too.
Usually 2 months is the limit, most places are like that, that I have used anyway.
Can't they deduct money from my bank account every week?Quote:

As well as your layby card, which has your personal and layby details on it, you will receive your layby docket which is similar to a receipt but used to document your payments and make things alot easier.
if you lose your layby docket, the details are on your layby card BUT some stores will only issue you a reprint if you provide id
Laybys are generally 8 weeks (target, kmart, bigw)
layby fees are
bigw $2
target $2.50
kmart $3
need to leave a 10% deposit
make fortnightly payments
any other questions?
