ok so i have this lawn mowing job, and it pays pretty well. i have enough to buy some new KF layzrs since they're 50 percent off, which is a steal. so how do i buy these without my parents knowing or using one of my parents credit cards? could i just send an envelope full of cash? maybe an envelope with cashiers check or whatever? someone help, i need these skis before the sale comes to an end.

Nah, I can hide them easy, they're clueless Cus they don't ski. I'll just put the delivery address at the post office, go get them, hide them in my basement corner till ski season. They won't let me get another ski Cus I already have a small quiver, but the dilemma is that my pow ski is my touring setup so it's terribly heavy and no fun to jib on, see that's where The layzrs come in to play

But the main reason they won't buy them is Cus "I already have enough skis" but I don't see how that's a problem Cus it's with my own money? Jah feel?

go buy a VISA gift card, idk how much the skis cost but if under 400$ it's perfect. You bring how ever much money you need for the skis +5$ and make sure you have shipping and tax included. And you just check out like its a normal credit card. Also I have visa in capitals because I bought a master card one and when you activate the master card version you need your social security number bit if you have it available either works.

Visa Debit Card is the way to go here yo. CVS and Walgreens have ones that go from $500, most convience stores have them, but often they're only up to about $50 or $100 at most.

Buy skis you mean kilos bricks of cocaine right?

Open a bank account and get a debit card. It's free generally or dirt cheap. Buy whatever you want. Or go to walmart or other places and buy a reloadable card with your money.

Honestly easiest just to open an account. Even if you keep most of your loot in cash and put money into your account when you need it.

If your worried about your parents knowing about your money, they can't see any of that if it's in your bank account.

you have a job, earn your own money, but aren't being allowed to use it? im sorry but your parents are fucking nuts. not the best way to teach their kids the value of money if they aren't even allowed to spend it.

Go to the store or albertsons or whatever and get one of those pre-paid card that go from $50 to $500 they are not reloadable so once the money is on there it is on there for ever or you could get cash back but...

Join a credit union. They are non profit so they won't rip you off. Seriously just drop in to the closest credit union with your cash and they will help you out.

Tell your parents to fuck off. If its your money do what you want with it. If they won't let you use their card to buy online, just make a paypal account link it to your bank account and just buy them.

We accept cards filled with cash!!

But a personal check or certified check is probably your best bet. Just shoot us an email before sending a check so we don't sell out when the check is in the mail.
