So, I need to purchase something online without my wife knowing. I can't buy it right out because my wife will see the transaction come out of our checking account. So I have to add funds to my papal that she won't see.

So, I'm looking for someone to send me $38.40 through paypal, and I'll mail you a $50 bill.

This is only open to known trusted members, as I guarantee delivery obviously, and would like to avoid getting scammed for an additional $50.

That's one of the reasons I'm glad I'm not married any more.

Re: Strange request here

I'll do it for you, but I doubt you want to deal with international BS.

As bennett said, why not buy a 50$ pre-paid visa/mastercard and add it to the account?

Greendot Moneypak! I do it all the time when I do not want to wait for my bank transfer to paypal which usually takes 3-4 days. Go to Wal-mart, buy the card, scratch off the number, open up paypal, click on add funds to green dot Moneypak! Simple.

Lol. Found an alternative way.
I just went ahead and bought it. So now when she notices the transaction on our checking account, i'll play it off as if I am christmas shopping early and cannot tell her what it was.
She won't bitch if she thinks I bought something for her, and she'll forget about it by christmas.

Assuming he plans to get her SOMETHING for Christmas, which he likely will, it would be rude of her(in the culture I was brought up in atleast) to inquire as to the cost. And 38 dollars is not too much. Also, assuming the transaction went through paypal, he could explain away bits and pieces due to fees, shipping costs(if there will be any), etc. There are many games one can play to make something look like nothing, but most likely it will not be questioned.

Buy her something for the same amount and everything is fine!

Honestly, the OP is a joke, right?

I don´t understand you Americans having to justify for things you´re buying. I mean, you´re making your own cash, right
