    I have some loot on PayPal and am having difficulty finding a HBS that takes it. Does anyone know of a HBS that takes PayPal?

    I ordered from Midwest Supplies last month and I think that was an option upon checkout.

    Pretty sure Austin HBS takes Paypal as well.

    Get the paypal browser plugin and it generates a single use Visa/MC number - you can use it anywhere.

    Can you just transfer the money in your paypal account then pay using a credit or debit card?

    Get a paypal visa card. That's what I use it for.

    Awesome! I originally tried to use PayPal with one site and called their customer service to find that they did not accept PayPal. I just loaded the PayPal plug in and now i am all set. The plug in allows me to use PayPal anywhere that accepts credit cards. Thanks for the advice all.

    LOL

    A friend sold some golf clubs for me on ebay and he was paid through PayPal. He had me set up a PayPal account so that he could transfer the funds to me. I had never used PayPal and i wanted to convert the money to beer one way or another. Thanks homebrewtalk!

    If you start using paypal a lot, then the paypal debit card is the way to go. I use mine almost daily.

    I use paypal, but I was burned by them and heard bad stories back before they were bought by e-bay, I think they are good now but anything dealing with my money and the internet makes me be extra careful :)

    Mainstreet is the LHBS that I go to. Kevin and Doug are great! Just give them a call and they will take care of you.

    Or, you can paypal me if you want to buy some Millennium Hops - $23+ $9 shipping for 1 pound!

    +1 on the Paypal Debit Card. Works anywhere and you get a cash back bonus everytime you use it. It usually takes a week or 2 to get it in the mail after you sign up for it.
