I have a Visa gift card with only $4.24 left on it. Does anybody have any ideas for what to buy with this card?

I want to spend it online, but whatever I buy must cost less than $4.24, including shipping.

I'm open to any reasonable suggestions. Hell, I'm open to unreasonable suggestions too...

at the little mexican food joint down the street, you can get a monster-sized carne asada burrito.

anywhere close?

or....you can sign up for paypal, using that credit card, and any balance over the $4.24 comes out of your bank account. (assuming you have money in THAT!)

Well, assuming you can pay your phone bill with a credit card and applying the formula oft seen on television ("$.99 gets you 20 minutes of long distance, with $.07 for each additional minute!):

You can talk long distance on the phone for approximately 66 and a half minutes.

You can buy certain books on Half.com, including media mail. :)

Hrm.

How about, Sunday morning, buying two local papers (at a buck fifty each) and a bottle of diet Dr. Pepper?

You can buy a bar of Kitchen Vixen Homemade soap. (But not the shipping, sorry!)

Borrow another two bucks from a friend and buy a copy of Star Wars: Jango Fett from Dark Horse comics.
