They charge everybody the price it would cost if they paid interest on a loan. If I am buying from anybody offering interest-free credit, I use it as the starting point for negotiating a cash discount.
Surely they make the profit on the product they are selling!
Very often it is not the store that is selling the goods that provides the credit - that is a separate finance company.
