Mastercard Gift Card and Itunes

I have a mastercard gift card with about $14 left on it. I figured I would use this to buy apps as I come across them in the App store. I was poking around in Itunes and I couldn't find a place to put in a one time credit card purchase. I really just want to turn that $14 into itunes credit.

Is there some way to do this? Like send myself a gift or something?

thanks

I would just put the gift # in under credit card info and use it up. I think another itunes gift would be kind of a hassle?

But you can ask the iTS support folks using the contact us at the bottom of this page

well I already have a card attached to itunes that I would like to leave in place. I am trying to avoid having to change the cards again after I use up the $14

I don't believe you can use a Mastercard Gift Card in iTunes. It needs to be an actual credit card.
You could purchase an iTunes gift card with it.

well I already have a card attached to itunes that I would like to leave in place

All you have to do is re-enter the card number.
Also, I would not recommend leaving your CC entered in iTunes.
I add it to make a purchase then remove it.
