... As is Walmart pre-paid Visa cards.
So yeah. I have gone out and bought another pre-paid card. And yes, that does mean that I do intend to waste it all on Gaia. After all, I never really get the chance to anymore.
Now, here's the thing. I bought this card at Walmart, which I don't really trust with anything. So I was very skeptical about even buying it. So here I am, utterly pissed at the card, and at PayPal, of all things.
I forget why I originally signed up for a PayPal, but later, it just proved to slow me down. First off, the last card that I had, it would deduct one dollar for itself every time I made an order on this site. It would later be removed with no charges taken from the account, but was really annoying when my account said I had $15 to put in, then when I was about done with my order, decided that right then was a good time to detract that one dollar. =__=
So now here's my problem. Apparently, unlike other Visa cards, this Walmart one needs to actually go through and verify the order before allowing you to do anything else. Seriously, that is ridiculous. I mean, I could understand it if every other Visa did this, but I have gone through two other independent services that went through Visa, and this is the first time this has happened.
Moral of the story?
Stay the ******** away from Walmart.
On top of that frustration, I get to wrestle with my new Action Replay for my DS. I'm not exactly thrilled about it anymore, since none of the codes I put in work. We'll see, I guess.
