    Exactly what it says.

    You have 76.00.

    you have 166.40 balance pending. (pending means - it aint there yet, wait a few days or for PP it could be 2 weeks depending on your account)

    You spent some money that wasn't credited to your account yet (that PENDING one)

    Go read the PP FAQ's and they explain all of this.

    FWIW, the debit card funds won't show. Just make sure that when you use a prepaid card that there is enough money on it to cover the purchase.
