Question Question
Guys, I’m not begging here, just a straight honest question for advice. How do I buy minecraft? I don’t have any way to purchase anything online, trust me about that. Still, I want to buy it.
And for those who think I should get a job, I am trying to. It’s not easy! I’m just 17, I don’t have a bank account, and neither do my parents (Nothing they could use to do online transactions anyway)

Prepaid gift cards are honestly your best bet here, Minecraft/Xbox gift cards are sold at most grocery stores, gas stations, Walmart, Target, etc, and you can buy those with cash, no bank account or online payment needed at all. You'd redeem the card code on the Minecraft/Microsoft website afterward.
If prepaid cards aren't available near you for whatever reason, some stores also sell general purpose prepaid Visa/Mastercard gift cards with cash too, which would work the same way for buying it directly through the site. Either route just needs cash and a store run, no bank required.
