Will those store-bought credit cards work to donate here?
I've got a deficit in the banking account so that card won't work, but I was thinking of putting the money on one of those visa gift cards I saw at the grocery. I need to know if it'll work before I take the little I have and chip in.

1. The gift cards are basically the same as a debit card
The only difference between a Visa (or MC or whatever) gift card and a debit card is that once you put money into a gift card, you can not take it back out except by using the card to make a purchase. Since debit cards work for making donations, a gift card should work just fine.
