How Catalogue Shopping is Helping Families in 2025

Catalogue shopping can offer flexible purchasing options for families managing tighter budgets. As the cost of living rises and household finances come under increasing pressure, spreading the cost of essential purchases may help some consumers manage their outgoings. Retailers like Mad for It offer catalogue shopping, which allows customers to access the products they need while spreading the payments over time

What is catalogue shopping?

When you shop on a catalogue, you simply order the item/s you wish to purchase, they get delivered to you and then you pay for the items in weekly, fortnightly or monthly instalments. Many people will use catalogues to buy more expensive items such as washing machines, or dishwashers - items that you need in your home but the upfront cost may set you back more than you’d like. By spreading the cost across an extended period of time, it becomes more manageable for your monthly budget as long as you can afford the monthly repayments.

At Mad for It, we offer credit accounts to our customers which can be up-to £1200, credit is subject to status. This credit can be used across the whole site so you can browse to find exactly what you are looking for.

Catalogues are gaining popularity in recent years.

There are many reasons why catalogues have been gaining popularity in recent years. In the past, consumers have had to either sacrifice on the quality of the products they are buying or save for months to be able to buy the item outright. When you shop on a catalogue such as Mad for It, you get the best of both worlds - you can get the best quality possible and pay for it each month so there is no need to save up for months, as long as you can easily afford the monthly repayments. All credit is subject to status.
