I can't reply to every post so I am just hitting the ones that bring up particular things, like the WalMart card.

The city gave WalMart cards to everyone and I went out yesterday and got a few things. The city is footing the bill and I have not idea how much money they have alloted to help people. There are just so many other people whose needs are more desperate than mine, I would not have felt right buying a ton of stuff - esp. things they told me I could buy and wouldn't even have a place for now.

I hate to cook, so didn't see any reason to run up a bill for pots, pans, plates, etc. Didn't have a house to clean so didn't need cleaning supplies. No bed, so didn't need a bedspread. Now, if they would replace my computer and kayak. I might have been seriously tempted!

Instead of waiting for checks to be mailed and clear or like me, I need to wait till Monday to get a Money order, why don't you open a Paypal account?

It's free to open a personal account and to receive money from other peoples checking accounts.

The money is deposited directly to your checking account.

Only bad thing with Paypal, personal free accounts can't accept Credit Card payments.

I know you are proud, but please consider doing this.

We can get help to you a lot quicker.
