PayPal Debit Card

I finally got my PayPal debit card! I want to hold it up over my head in triumph! In my imagination it is glowing and the ditty that plays when you open a chest in Zelda is playing in the background. :-D Heh!

I applied for one back in April, but was declined. I was so upset! I finally decided to try again and I was accepted this time. Only, the weird thing is that when I activated it, it said the card I ordered in April had been issued. WEIRD! So I called customer support and talked to a very friendly guy named Adam who sorting things out for me. Turns out that the card was still in limbo or something. So I had him cancel it so it doesn't come back to haunt me.

Anyhoo, why am I so excited? I can finally use my PayPal account to keep my business money separate from my personal money! When I go to the post office, I can pay with the money that I was paid for shipping directly from my PalPal account! This is awesome because before I would pay out of my pocket and reimburse myself with my PayPal funds later. This method was frustrating and hard sometimes when I was broke and wanted to ship my orders out asap.

Hurrah! Another page is turned!

In other news, the joints for my new 10" dolls came in today and I also got a notice that my woven labels have gone into production! I'm hoping to introduce my new line in early November. It's going to be an exciting day for sure!
