Can you add Plugins to the wordpress FREE account?
-
I’m wanting to add some plugins and went to the plugin tab on m dashboard and it asked me if I wanted to add a store to my site… Are plugins only available on premium and business accounts?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Blogger installed plugin capability does not exist on WordPress.COM blogs and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality. You are confusing WordPress.ORG and WordPress.COM. For that type of functionality you’d need a self-hosted site running on a paid web hosting service.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/ftp-access/We have built in plugins as you can see by clicking this link http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/
See here https://en.support.wordpress.com/ecommerce/ for the plugins (Ecwid, Shopify or Gumroad) that are available under the $299. US per year Business upgrade. http://store.wordpress.com/plans/business/
Otherwise, provided you are selling only what you yourself make or a service that you personally provide you have two options.
(1) PayPal – Know that the only instructions that will work for posting a PayPal donation button on a WordPress.com blog are found here http://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/
Some bloggers create a contact form https://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/ on a page and after the people have made a PayPal donation they provide the link to a private page for downloading files. Maybe that will work for you.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-visibility/(2) eCommerce site link- If you have set up an eCommerce site somewhere else online you can create a custom menu http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/ and include a custom link to that site in it. http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#adding-custom-links

P.S. There is no ability to install plugins under the Premium plan http://store.wordpress.com/plans/premium/

If what’s offered by wordpress.COM does not suit you you can hire a web host http://wordpress.ORG/hosting and set up your own wordpress.ORG software install.
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.

WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page -
