Post Office
The shirts came in and I have them all packaged up and ready to go out but I need to know if the post office takes credit cards. The reason is whenever someone paid me for the shirt's I got online and put that money into my credit card. While I had no balace it put in my the negative so my credit card company actually owes me money. I did this because I know if I took the money out as cash or put it into my checking account I would use it to pay bills or something like that and I wanted to make sure I could ship the shirts out as soon as they came in.
