If the site takes paypal, there's no problem. It's quick, safe and easy.
I recently applied for and received a paypal debit card so I can shop at sites that don't take paypal. All I have to do is put in my paypal debit card number.

PayPal is the easiest, most secure, safe and reliable means to making and receiving payments online.
It is so simple to use.
If you go to https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_shop-ext
you will have access to the PayPal stores directory. This is so convenient.
Once you find what you are looking for, shop and head for the check out.
Once you go to Pay Now, you will be taken to PayPal where you will be prompted to sign in.
Once signed in you can pay for your purchase.
If your purchase is more than the funds in your PayPal account, PayPal will use what is in your PayPal account and then take the difference from the bank account or credit card that you have added to your PayPal account.
I believe that you will have a choice to choose whether you want PayPal to take from your bank account or credit card if you have added both.
Once you have made your purchase and paid through PayPal, you will have a choice to return to the store or continue to your PayPal account.
You will also receive a receipt to the email that you have registered with PayPal.
Personally, I have been using PayPal for years and have never had any problems.
If you do have a problem with a merchant however, say you do not receive that which you paid for, PayPal is very good at resolving disputes from what I understand.
I enjoy using PayPal for shopping on EBay. It is so convenient and I don't have to reveal my credit card number each time, online, no matter where I am shopping from.
PayPal is an awesome way to receive funds as well.
If you ever have any questions, PayPal is good at responding to inquiries.

First see their help files here:

That way you may find the answer that you're looking for much more timely than waiting for a response via email if you would rather send an email request.
Here are some interesting TIPS that I found online but I am not sure that I would follow Tip number one but I find that Tip number 4 very interesting as well as logical.

In the past I spent some money to buy stamps from Ebay. Unfortunately I have never received my stamps. It is a bad experience. Perhaps I won't buy from Ebay any more. If I want to use my Paypal money to buy something via the net again, I think I will tend to buy it from the online stores such as Amazon etc rather than an individual.
I love China

I am glad to have PayPal to buy things safely online. I use it to buy things from Ebay and other sites that now use PayPal. It is easy to use.. Any site that says it accepts Paypal can be used.

I have paid with PayPal many times before. I have noticed that a lot of big stores are using PayPal as one of their options now. It is very easy to use. You pretty much checkout just as you would with any checkout. It walks you through it. Though, sometimes it is a bit faster, since PayPal already has your information.
You can pay with a checking account, your PayPal balance or a credit card. But, make sure it is using the method you want. One time I went through checkout and didn't notice it wasn't using my balance and instead it was choosing my credit card. So, make sure the payment method you want is selected, to avoid the money being taken from the wrong place.
Have fun shopping!
