I got my sister a Trakfone (sp?) pre-pay at Target a while back. There should be plenty of options, all at around the same cheap price point.

I would offer to get them ordered through Best Buy and have it taken care of, but the company will only let the person buying the phones pick up them in store.

It's so stupid because I could get you set up with what you needed and save everyone a little money.

If a Best Buy is easy for anyone to get to in LA I can ask my manager about contacting the stores there and see if they can bend the rules. My manager did say if there was anything he could do I could just ask.

First , Allyson - share and vent. If you see us - you can just say a word or a gesture and we will know where you are - and can wait beside you

Strix - I'm sorry this pile on does no one any good , but we get to sit beside you

I feel like I'm sitting with all of you. When the pain gets bad - for any of you , not just me - I fond myself hanging on the the edge of the screen.

Kiba - good luck I'm glad it wen t well

and there's a lot more ..I've read every word. So glad to see old familiar faces ( even if I did have to think hard to remember

I can't decide if it is good or bad that this is one of those weeks at work. the few where I really can't miss. It is what it is I guess

bless you all

and happy birthday to the nicest -- may this year be good to you

Also, did we loose all the PF threads?

Yeah, pretty much. It's been a while, but I don't think we had a workable archiving script for that board, and when they shut down we were SOL.

The first Natter thread at WX overlaps Buffy 6. The Natter thread at TT came after.

thanks

Thank you Dana. I talked to Kristen about it and we're going to take the donations so we can make purchases directly for them, like the phones, lodging, prepaid Visa cards, pay for the obituary, contribute to costs associated with the cremation, give them cash to offset the exchange rate, pay for meals, etc. If anything is leftover it will be given to her parents to do with what they wish.

Agreed?

My paypal is Allyson000@aol.com

Thank you for giving. If you would like your name included on cards, please put your name (actual or internet handle) in the comments section.

I'm going to x-post on my Facebook.

Thank you, Allyson.

Allyson, is this something you'd like shared with i09? Or is that too big?

Don't feel bad for asking, Allyson. I started to suggest it earlier. You're also going to have out-of-pocket expenses, and you should use donations for them.
