Question from Mona: My son has been wanting a Kindle Fire tablet for a long time and I finally decided to get him one.
My problem is I can’t order one online from Amazon because I don’t have a credit card. I’ll need to pay for it with cash.
Do you know of any stores where I might be able to buy one locally? Thanks.
