    I think that was a lovely thing to do for your niece, she's out there earning some cash which will help to teach her the value of money.

  • Well I thought so. She deserved it, I like her entrepreneurship (that must be spelt wrong), and I have got a bit more leeway with the budget than some, thank goodness we realised in time.

    It was the way she said "I do the boot too, so you do get good value." I'll have to resist just buying the ipod touch!

    I love HA!

    I resisted the ipod touch, I got her a Come Dine With Me book. She's 12 but is addicted (must be a family thing) and knows far more about cooking than me!

    But..... I did get myself a blackberry! I did spend £37.98 on the car phone charger and a carry case, but my monthly dd is now £10 less. It's amazing you can get a new phone and pay less than you used to! So, I've joined the 21st century!
