So if you’re like me, your a cheap student, not wanting to pay and go through the hassle of a credit card and whatnot, but yet you wanna buy a Zippo, a phone case or even a pair of DC Shoes on Ebay, you’re in-between a rock and a hard place, you want to buy online, but you dont want credit card hassle… I introduce you to 3V

The whole ideaolgy and whatnot of 3V is simple, its some sorta (magic)disposable credit card! First you need a 3V card, which you can register and get for free at http://www.3v.ie (This has a number on it, that is used when buying 3V vouchers, like a account number). Nowthink of a 3V voucher like phone call credit or top up, you buy a 3v voucher with a certain amount on it, lets say €20, you get a credit card number, a CCV2 (pin) number and an expiry date is sent to your phone, like everything thing a real credit card has! You can use these details when adding a credit card to Paypal or when paying by credit card method online!

So you see it works in a kinda credity-debity card way, sweet, epic, waynes world, rock on! So its pretty self-explanatory. The 3V website (http://3v.ie) is pretty god damn good in a sense it lists all the shops in Ireland supply 3V vouchers, you can check balance of vouchers online and its good a nice picture of a lemming or a meerkat or something cute, for those of you with Bright Shiny Object Disorder

Check it out, well worth it, 5/5, 110% and all that:
