Question for Pam or anyone else who might know. If I preorder Pets from EA and use my paypal to pay for it will it charge me right away or still not until it ships?

I use my one credit card for everything, because it's all I have.  I've used it to pre-order EPs and to buy SimPoints, and never had any problem.  In the case of pre-orders, the charge doesn't get put on my card until the item is shipped.  I live in Canada and don't even know if Paypal is available here, nor do I care because the credit card billing is easy and - so far - problem-free.

I used reloadable pre-paid cards at the store. They work fine.

Are those like FarmVille Cards? I might look into those.

Sort of. You can buy them specifically for the store, but the major credit card companies like Visa and Mastercard make them, too.

I have purchased them at Target, Best Buy and Blockbuster Video.  I have seen them other places too, but can't remember.

EDIT: Target in my area has them on sale sometimes.  $20 card for $16.  I like sales.

I've seen them at Wal-Mart in the racks beside the games.

I apologise Pam, I was not aware that I had the caps on until after I posted, but I have done as you requested and modified the post.
