    aww thanks :o well i have been back to work today... last week i had the week off (holiday)... now i am back... the good news though is i have a rest day tommorow :j
  • can i run something past you all? d6954bbe44b0aa08f2efed9c7284ce9f.gif however please give me your honest opinions t1zcheekkiss.gif

    my brother uses xbox live, he brought his xbox360 upon release so i am guessing its 2 years old+ now for xmas i would like to get him the new elite... however his 360 is at deaths door... seriously he play it on average 8+ hours a day and has 2 fans (you know normal house fans) blowing onto it :rolleyes: so i would like to preorder the elite from my game store and buy it and give it to him on release... however there are 2 things putting me off....

    1) its release after payday... so if i am still learning to drive (but i wont ;)) i will need to use some of my savings (part of them anyway (in sig) are xmas savings anyway) as augs pay instead of saving i am paying for college (£207.00) :rolleyes:

    2) how do i 'put him off buying one' if i decide to buy it for him? i can get hold of someone who he speaks to online through me wii ~ thus finding out if he will buy one but how can i put him off?

    thanks in advance superpap :rotfl:

    You could be honest with him - say something like 'I have got you a Xmas present that you will love, but I'm worried you are going to go out and buy it yourself before Xmas - I don't want to tell you what it is, but if you are thinking of buying anything that has a plug, that costs more than £xx please would you check with me first'!

    Well done Kazl :T :T

    Superpap - is it a lot of money, ie: the amount you would normally spend? If not, could you not put some money towards it for him or vouchers for a shop that will sell it :confused: If you would normally spend this amount Snaggles's advice sounds good.
