Balatron Prepaid?
Has anyone heard of this? I encountered this, of all places, at an Ace Hardware store. I was in a hurry, buying plumbing supplies to fix a busted toilet supply valve that I didn't have time to read the details. Google's come up with nothing so far. I must go back and check it out.

You would think someone with your number of posts would understand what discretion means. I guess some will never learn.

What did I do? I just asked Lucky and a couple other bloggers about it, haven't heard back yet.

Just got back from Ace (was looking for discounted Christmas lights and hit the jackpot - C9s for .05 ea.)
Couldn't find Balatron, though I looked. Asked the clerk and he said he had heard they were getting a new prepaid in and thought Balatron sounded familiar. Going in every day to see if they've got it.
Who would've thought Ace Hardware.
THANKS OP!!

Wonder if you get Ace points on the purchase?

Why is everyone excited about this? There are a lot of pre-paids on the market with high fees. There is no information on this one yet, so no reason for a storm of interest like this.

Ok, looks like the OP has had their fun with this. For those still interested, I'd suggest a search on the definition of balatron.
