Re: just wondering if this will work
You could look into getting one of these (prepaid credit card found at a number of retailers)....

They are not a line of credit, you only put money on there when you want to make a purchase and the monthly service charge is quite reasonable. It might be a good answer to needing a credit card. The other way you could do it is to have a paypal account verified with your bank account and do your purchases using the paypal system.

You could call and ask if an online store would accept a money order.

Just get a prepaid visa debit card. We can get em at our local mall here in Kansas City.

Yep....pre-paid visa card available at pretty much all Wal-marts and the like.

Hi,
Could you link a bank account with paypal and keep it just for online purchases?

Get a prepaid card, then give Rich at Reptile Basics a call, or Dion at Spyder Robotics.
