    I would feel so trapped without my car. I live in a suburb with no public transportation and I'm not walking 2 miles down a busy road without sidewalks to get to the grocery store or 4 miles to the gym lol. Plus if I want to go into 'town' that's 18 miles and I'd have to walk through the ghetto that separates my little burb from the nearest big city.

    I drive to costco every 2 weeks. As far as I am aware that is enough driving to not be an issue.

    It warned you every time not to cash out below a threshold or paypal would take some of your money.

    I asked when did they STOP charging that fee. They used to charge a fee. They no longer do.

    I was out of town continuously for over a year traveling for work, it wasn't turned on once during that entire time haha. Before that, when I was home, I put <5k mi/yr on it. But AFAIK its mostly the year+ escapade that caused most of my problems.

    Should have sold the Grinch before leaving and bought something else when I got back.. How do I buy some of that hindsight stuff? :p

    I only just now noticed that the last time I cashed out that there wasn't a fee, that's interesting. I wonder why the website still says it charges??

    Do I have to convert it to USD or can I just use it like it is?

    Let me get you an English to Turker dictionary lol. I totally understand your question but I can't answer because I've just let my money sit and accumulate and haven't even made a withdrawal yet.

    maybe it's because when you withdraw on Paypal it does it in pounds, instead of converting it like it used to, to USD
