Just tossing my name into the “Thanks to **faithfool** for renewing my subscription appreciation posts.” She is really quite a generous Doper.

OK, I am running out of money.

Sorry, but those are the facts of real life.

I’m pretty sure that there are enough helpers to reach the folks that need assistance.

Just got your original response to be my intermediary. Many thanks.

My first email to you had the wrong address. Your response automatically fell into the junk folder of a seldom visited msn account.

So much for my your divine and mystical way…

Thank you **jsgoddess** and many thanks to **faithfool** for the kind offer.

Seeing as I don’t have any means of paying for my membership, I throw myself on the mercy of a kind Doper to pay my way. Email’s in my profile 🙂

Yeah, me too. I seriously don’t have any way of paying for it that would go through. Email me if interested, and I can set up something to pay you back in kind.

Seein’ as how it’s beginning to look like I’m padding my post count, I’ll just make one (I hope) blanket offer to anyone who needs someone as an intermediary and doesn’t mind sending the money first before they’re renewed. I _think_ I’m trustworthy, but if not and you are so inclined, I could pay for, I mean _give_, references. 😃

And to anyone else who’s taken me up on my meager services… let’s just say that it’s been _me_ that’s been blessed during the whole process. I’ve met me some wonderful people.

Last time (!) with feeling… email’s in the profile too. Drop me a line or post it here. Either way, I’ll get it. 🙂

[nervousness]  
OK, so I like it here, and I find I’m becoming pathetically addicted to the SDMB. I’m a just-finished-being-a-student and trying to find a job at the moment (as a lawyer, but don’t let that put you off! 😃 ) Anyways, I have no credit card, etc. etc. I would be delighted to send a Doper a money-order for the $AUS equivalent of the membership fee if they would whack it on their credit card or something for me. As far as I know, I’m trustworthy (or I’m prone to feelings of raging guilt, whichever you prefer).  
I think my email’s in my profile, but if it’s not, due to my CP ineptitude, please post in this thread and I’ll go into my CP again and fiddle with it.  
Also can someone explain the process of sending an MO to an anonymous someone to me? I’m confused.  
Yours Sincerely,  
Sarah Woodruff.

A very kind Doper paid my way last year. Thanks again, you know who you are.

I still don’t have a credit card and I wish it to stay that way.

I would love for someone to pay for me but they MUST let me send them either money (easiest if they’re in Ireland) or a little gift (Guinness coasters, a book, a surprise) as I really feel uncomfortable about someone paying for me as I can quite easily afford it.

Sorry, forgot to say that my e-mail is the profile.

If you want to sign up the kind of poster who needs two post to make a point half the time, that is.

We would recommend you NOT pay for “Billy the Ram,” not a legit poster.

If someone wants to spot me the $7.48 to re-up by the 28th, I’d greatly appreciate it, and would Paypal the cash back to you.

I’m just in a state of flux for the next few weeks, so I don’t have the cash free at the moment. I’m such a :wally

I managed, through a lot of red tape, to set up a pay pal account and feed it $10 a year ago, for the sole reason of joining. The amount of effort involved was truly awful, so if anyone could take the trouble of sponsoring me, I’d be happy to go to my local exchange office, buy a $10 bill and stick in in an envelope with the hope that it doesn’t get lost in ordinary mail. Or I could buy you a pair of genuine, Swedish wooden butter knives and ship those instead.

I take it no one would want me to ship some lutefish.
