What would you suggest?

Postby Nightshade X » Mon Jun 07, 2004 10:56 pm

I have a dilemma. This past semester, I was able to get a 3.0 GPA. This is my first EVER!!! Therefore, my mom has offered to do something for me, but she's also completely show down everything I've suggested. I guess asking for the Apple iPod or the Xbox was a bit much, since she's trying to buy my sister a car. Not that I'm asking for a new computer or a car to replace my old '73 Volkswagen Beetle, or anything like that...

Anyway, I'm out of ideas, so I'd love some input. Let me know if any of you can think of something that I can get that's less expensive than... let's say... $100. That way, I'm pretty sure I'd be able to get what's suggested.

Thus, my request has been made. Now, please help me with this, because I really don't want to settle for dinner or a new shirt (seriously... it's been so overdone...)

In other words, parents would pay for your gas for the next month.

Anyway, I'm not sure where you live, but where I live you could get like 3 used gamecube games for under $100 :grin:

Hey, thanks for all the ideas, guys. (especially Mr. Antilles... such a mega-huge list...) However, I found a coupon that would allow me to get a discount on a preplayed PS2 if I trade in my Playstation. I ran that idea by her and she agreed to it!!! So, after such a long, LONG wait, I'M FINALLY GETTING A PS2!!!!
