That's really funny... yeah Firn you must be right, because I have an account with my "Credit" Card, which is actually just a Visa Giftcard, and it worked, I got Monthly Collectables since April '07 (but I quit getting them after awhile,) maybe because someone 18+ bought the giftcard it counts them as the name... oh, well!

Now that I think of it, I used to have a prepaid credit card. Actually, I've had about 3 of them, but I never used them so the $40 on each of them expired. The same thing happens with my prepaid phone minutes. Too bad I don't still have those cards.
The only reason I've been able to buy mc's is because I buy cash cards at the rite aid down my street.
Well, my boyfriend is 18. Maybe I could convince him to set something up. Jeese, I feel so young. I won't even be 18 by the time I start college. >.<

@HomicidalChocolate --- My cards have never actually expired... *points to shop-a-holic's centre thread* I've always spent them within a few months... I was lucky on Gaia to have had the perserverence to wait every month for the MCs x.X which I just gave away to my friends, I gave the official note of resignation from Gaia, handed them the password, now they're splittin' the booty... I requested that Kaya the Cat and Coco Kitty not be sold, and if and when I go back to Gaia I get those two items back!

You should've given it to me. XD
Yeah, I'm bad at shopping. I don't like to spend my money. I usually end up giving it away to someone... or else I lose it. I've lost more money than I've spent... I should probably change that soon considering I'm almost in college.

Yeah, I give my cash away too, I'm sort of in debt, not really though. My brother and I bought a Wii, I want it to be just mine so I'm paying him in installments to make it mine... just $140 to go!

lol that's funny.
You should just have him give it to you for your birthday present.
Oh, and I'm getting pretty good with javascript now. I made an image map with 10 of my knuffels but I don't know if I have a way to get it online.

XD I'm exactly that way about some of my stuff. I bought Twilight Princess and my own Wiimote, just so they could be mine. It drives my aunt crazy, since she insists on having me share the Wiimote, but being a germaphobe, I prefer that people have clean hands before they touch my stuff (and if I'm not around, how will I make sure?) I end up having to clean the Wiimote after use sometimes. v__v <--totally crazy.

@homi --- yeah, I was good at it for quite some time then I forgot it recently due to lack of use... I should start using it again... but unfortunately it's kind of hard for me to know right at this moment if I decide to get a degree in web design...
yeah I should have him give it to me for my birthday... but unfortunately I've tried that, and I've tried the "I'll do your chore for 140days...
@Firn --- so, I went to the library to get a book, this is how old our library must be, they had only two german books, but both required the use of a tape cassette... I thought tapes were extinct, so I'm waiting for an order, because in Kent County they merged all the libraries into a category called KDL (Kent District Library) and they transport books from one to the other, so I'm getting a book I reserved later sometime in the next two weeks!!!
@Mikael--- Yeah... another story I have to share is I went to use a public restroom while driving to my family get together yesterday, and I opened the door, and left it a crack open with my foot to start washing my hands so I wouldn't touch the door again, and my middle-younger brother told me while opening door to "wash my hands it's sanitary" then when I began washing and left he told my stepmom I wasn't going to wash my hands... and that he told me too, and I tried telling her
"I was opening the door so I wouldn't get nasty germs all over me, that's also why I dont touch the air dryer, because then you just start back at square one with dirty hands"
then she tried blaming me as being one of those nasty people who makes bathrooms dirtier, so I told her that 99/100 chance there was someone who didn't wash there hands and got those dirty anyway before me, I was just taking further prevention...

omg, Mouse, you're in Kent County? XD I went to Kendall for college. Kent's got a nice library system as far as I remember.
On the topic of credit gift cards... I have one and it says if it's not used within a year they'll start deducting money from it. I'm guessing that's normal for credit issued gift cards, or will be.
Paypal is awesome. One good thing to add if you need someone else to help you get something is that PayPal is secure. When you purchase/donate something with another site, you aren't actually giving that site your credit info - only Paypal has that, so there's less chance of someone's credit card number being stolen. :3
