V Bucks and Fortnite

I want to purchase something called vbucks for my son to use in a game called Fortnite.

I have read some stories where a child would run up the bill in Fortnite, which makes me wary of giving out my credit card.

So I went on a quest to find a prepaid credit card to use with Fortnite, and I came across some Internet posts saying I should use a Mastercard, not a Visa.  Then I heard of some people recommend the use of vanillacard a prepaid credit card.

Couple things on this journey

  • The only place I have found this card was at Walmart, and you have to load it in their money line.  When I was there the line was long.
  • I then tried Walgreens, Rite Aid, Albertsons, Target, and Staples, most had Visa, and the only one that had a Vanilla Card was Rite aid and it was a Visa.
  • Then there varying costs, some had a $6 setup fee others were lower like $2 but had a monthly charge, some you could reload for $5.  What a ripoff.  I feel for these people that do not have a credit card.
  • Maybe it was a sign, so I got home, did I bit of research, vanilla card is a lousy company.

It was an interesting learning experience, in the end, I am going to use a credit card that I rarely use (kind of need to put some activity on it anyway).  Then immediately remove it from the account after I purchase the vbucks.  I will monitor this account, I do so anyway.

With all this, I did not get a chance to run.

Also did not photograph my new shoes.

To top it all off, I kind of ate bad stuff at the Farmer’s Market (not too bad, corn aint that bad, and some sips of a sugary drink)
