<prompt> Human: Basically I just need about 500 - less even- to get me by this last few days until the 1st rolls around and I get paid. I heard a pawn shop will give me money for my watch, that I have to pay back plus interest, and I get my watch back. Is that usually how it works? Theres no way they can scam me? Im sorry this question is amateur but Im really wondering what my options are to get a little money quick. Thank you for any advice  <response>: When is your rent due? Mine is due on the first and my lease stipulates that I will pay 7 interest if more than 6 days late. 7 is way better than the interest rate youll get from the pawn shop. Id just reach out to landlord and them know that you expect to be X days late with rent this month, will be happy to pay a late fee or penalty and it will not happen again.
