Why might a mattress store choose to advertise new mattresses, worth $1,000, as $50 per week for 22 weeks?

IgorLugansk [536]

By doing so, they provide the illusion that the payments are cheaper then 1000 dollars, because 50 looks very small, when in reality it's $100 more then what the mattress is actually worth.
