Said Mark Snyder, Kmart’s chief marketing officer: “We have an entire generation of customers that grew up shopping online. Launching online layaway at Kmart engages these customers by allowing them to spread their payments out over time and better plan their spending.”

The Kmart online layaway program has a number of features including a layaway calculator, a layaway manager, email reminders and an availability grid.

The rules for Kmart online layaway are relatively basic. It costs about $5 to begin a layaway contract and the down payment needs to be 10%. Additionally, consumers have two months to pay and will need to pick up their layaway items at a local Kmart store.

Said Brown in a written statement: “Target has shown a willful disregard for California’s hazardous-waste laws by dumping flammable liquids and toxic chemicals in local landfills over a period of eight years. If successful, this lawsuit would force Target to comply with state laws governing the lawful handling and disposal of toxic and corrosive waste.”

Legal experts predict that this news could cost Target up to $7.5 million dollars if they are found guilty on these allegations.

This isn’t the first time California has gone after a large retailer. In fact, Kmart and California recently reached a settlement that included Kmart paying more than $8.6 million to the state.
