I basically have an ally bank account and it's awesome but if someone gives me cash I'm a bit screwed lol so I want a top up credit card (Walgreens etc) so I can put money across via PayPal or just use the card.

Any suggestions. Thanks.
 
Aren't there in network ATMs that you can make deposits with? You could also open a free savings account at a local credit union and use bill pay to pay yourself.

I'm British and that makes no sense but I'm sure there are other ways its more of needing it swiftly you know?
 
I use a AMEX prepaid for iTunes. There are no fees to load via ACH from your checking and there are no fees to use.

After they observe your usage, they may invite you to apply for a regular AMEX card.
 
You could just open up another bank account (Free checking) at a local bank, Keep the minimum balance in there (maybe $5) and when someone gives you cash you can write yourself a check or use your debit card to transfer money.
