Can I use Paypal to buy Disney Dollars or gift cards?

[Maureenmouse]

Is there anywhere to use paypal to but Disney dollars or gift cards? I ebay for pocket money for our vacations. I thought it would be good to directly buy gift cards or Disney dollars instead of trying to put the money ina bank acct. etc. We're not going back to disney until 2008 , but I'm trying to budget now to save for next year. Any suggestions?

I use my paypal debit card to buy them at the disney store.

I just transfer my paypal into my checking account and then use my Disney Visa to buy GC's and DD.

you can use you paypal debit card or the virtual debit card and buy them right online from disneyshopping.. if you go though sunshine rewards they are giving 8% back right now

Can you only get Disney Dollars at the Disney Stores (not online)?

Thanks for the replies. I guess that there's no way to just pay directly from paypal like ebay and Toysrus takes? I guess I'll have to link to my bank account or get a debit card.

you can just do the virtual debiut card.. its takes the existing money right out of your paypal account.

Is there a fee for the virtual debit card? If so do you know how much?
Thanks,

Sunshine Rewards received word yesterday that Disney will no longer give the 8% back on Gift Cards. Guess they got wise to what people were doing and put a stop to it.

You could put your money in an online bank account and draw interest until your 2008 trip.

BestBuy takes paypal credit online only. If you buy at least $100 in gift cards you can get special financing which gives you 6 months interest free payments. Just pay it off before 6 months is up!

The OP went on their trip back in 2008. I hope they figured it out by now. Good info though.
