Have you ever gotten your spouse a reloadable debit card while they were deployed?

i was thinking about doing it since we are trying to keep finances in line.Have you ever gotten your spouse a reloadable debit card while they were deployed?
Have not done this for that reason, but did do something similar for my teenager. So I just have a suggestion for you. The prepaid debit/credit cards charge you a monthly fee....you are trying to keep your finances in line, so why not save a few more bucks. Open another savings account with your bank, and get a debit card. No fees and you can set a certain amount of money to go directly to that account every paycheck. Also if there is an emergency and he needs money for something, you can do the transfer of funds right online or over the phone.Have you ever gotten your spouse a reloadable debit card while they were deployed?
I know people who have done that with good results. Just make sure the card can be used overseas because some of them can't. And be aware of the charges they'll have for overseas transactions that require money being changed from dollars. And the costs, if any, for every reload. Knowing those basic facts about the card may affect the way you use it.
My husband has a low limit credit card that I pay off each pay so if it's stolen we won't be ';dinged'; more than a couple of hundred and it helps keep him from buying out the entire Bazaar...lol...
