steam is having a 66% off on half life 2 (a game iv been wanting to get REAL bad) the total adds up to around $12. i don't know when they will stop the deal because its a weekend deal and well its Monday >< i was away this weekend so im forced to see if the sale will be up tomorrow morning.

HOWEVER i have a check for $50 from my birthday is there a way i could you know get that $50 onto paypal? iv looked and looked but haven't seen anything ><

i hope its still there in the morning or ill cry because ill have to spend $30 for a game iv been dying to get (not really but you get the point)

Cash the check into your bank account? I don't know how PayPal works.

The deal is still up by the way. :)

Put cheque in bank. Transfer money from bank into paypal.

Or you could write "Paypal" on your cheque. Put in a postbox and hope for the best.

transfering money from bank account to paypal account can take up to 3 days if i'm not mistaking.
Using Visa+Paypal: u don't need to transfer money; just goes immediate from ur visa (through paypal)

Cash check, store on bank account, transfer to paypal.

Ow yeah, also check if paypal supports bank acc to paypal transfers. I live in Belgium and that's not supported here :banghead: (good thing I have Visa :P )

You'd be better off buying yourself a gift card and using that for the online purchase.

Going through paypal can take a while if you don't have money on there already.

If you have your credit card / bank details already saved to paypal, then its instant.

+1

That's what I always do.

I have $0 in my paypal. If I buy something it just take sit out of my debit account automatically (and they have my CC as insurance for insufficient funds)
