Hi,
I am in the process of trying to help my brother get started with the freebie sites. He just has signed up for a paypal account and is in the process of trying to get verified. To do the offers, does anyone know of a pre-paid card he could apply for. I have heard of them but don't know where to go to look. I use my paypal debit card right now but he has to have his account open for 60 days before he can apply for a paypal debit card.
Thanks,
sun-flower

You could get a virtual one online at simon.com/giftcard. Make sure you put plenty of balance on though because some offer sites put a $15 holding charge to make sure there are enough funds on the GC, and that can restrain you from doing offers if you're swamped with temporary charges.

We bought a Vanilla VISA at the drugstore (CVS) and paid a $5.95 fee for a $50 card.

Usually prepaid cards also have a per transaction fee. Read the TOS first.
You might try your bank.
