Every so often I have an eBay clearout and as a result accumulate Paypal dosh. Rather than transfer it into the general household budget (here in chez hand-to-mouth!) or buy tat off the Bay, are there any major stores where you can spend it. I was thinking maybe a restaurant gift card or the like. I would imagine that you would have to prepay rather than access your PP account by phone on location.
Anyone any experience of this?
Thanks chaps

use it to deposit into a betting/gaming account and then you might win even more!

Boots allow to pay with paypal on their website, not sure that helps though.

I seem to recall paypal offering me a debit card for a fiver which uses the balance direct from the paypal account.

Transfer the balance back to your bank account, get the money out from a cashpoint and go to any high street shop that accepts cash.

Or did I misunderstand the original post?.

I transfer any PayPal funds to a savings account which is seperate from my day to day cash, that way I can spend it on treats.

Oh and I get paid for doing surveys in Luncheon Vouchers! biggrin
