Hey guys. I recently stumbled across this website, and have been intrigued. haha. I've decided to get a small green Fleurcup (thanks for all the tips!) , but the only problem is I don't have a credit card. Anyone know if I could buy a Visa gift card at the store and use that to pay for it? I'm going to be working at a summer camp all summer, and using a cup would be ten times easier than using pads or tampons. Thanks! :)

sometimes it would be better for me not to have one too... i tend to spend so much money with my credit card!

If you have a debit card it works as a credit card. With a paypal account you can pay right from a bank account. I don't know what country you live in, or whether these are options for you.
I don't know what country your in, but I'm in the US and I like to use moneypak on paypal.

sunshine_58 on April 12th, 2012 02:00 am (UTC)I am in the US, and have a bank account but not a debit or credit card. I'm only 17, and don't have a regular job besides babysitting so using only cash works just fine 95% of the time. And then when I want to get something like this it is difficult. I'm going to look into paypal though. It would be easier than buying a gift card. If not, I can always talk to my parents about borrowing their card and paying them, but I'm not very comfortable talking to them about this kind of thing. :/
*edit*
It turns out you have to be 18 to create a paypal account, so that's not going to work...

I've also been eyeing the Fleurcup, and I'd be willing to order yours at the same time as mine if you wanted to mail a money order to me for the amount? (You get money orders at the post office, and I think they cost $1 or $2). I'd have both of the cups shipped to me, and then I'd just mail yours to you. Would that work for you?
(edit)
Or I think you could maybe use the Visa gift card directly on the Fleurcup site...? I've never used one, so don't quote me on that, but I would be inclined to think that would work too.

sunshine_58 on April 12th, 2012 03:48 am (UTC)Thanks for the offer. I'll keep that in mind. I think I'm going to try the gift card and see if that will work. If not, I can always spend it on something else. Haha.
You're welcome. Good luck with it, and let us know how it works out. :)
Haha, I'm 16 and I've been using paypal, whoops XD
