Hi Wayne
Thanks for that - what I might do is get her to use the Motorola L6 at school and get her a better one for outwith school hours - at least that way she's less chance of losing it - maybe!
That's a good price for the Pink Samsung E900.
Thanks to you too, for your reply, Skintlarkin.

I believe that the E900 is now selling at £79.99 now?
Comparing it to the highest price available (Argos) is not money saving, it is cheaper nearly everywhere else.Well life is harsh, hug me don't reject me.0 -

No, its £99.99 in pink ( OP said her daughter loved pink )Comparing it to the highest price available (Argos) is not money saving, it is cheaper nearly everywhere else.
Maybe not but getting a £150 phone ( Closer to the true retail price of the phone when it came out ) for less than £60 is money saving.
Before I bought it I tried Phones4u and Carphone Warehouse who both wanted at least £100 for that model , even tried CW on their 110 % price promise but they didn't want to know because of the difference in price.0 -

Sorry, I didn't mean to upset you. I did put a question mark when I said that the E900 was £20 more than you got it for now, evidently it is £40 more.
Comparing a year old phone's price to today's price just has no value.
The retail price is whatever retailers are selling it at.
The E900 may have been £150 when released over a year ago, but you can get one easily and much cheaper everywhere.
This includes Argos whom charge £99.99Well life is harsh, hug me don't reject me.0 -

Thanks Z4kir!
I've never heard of that kind of phone before - have you! Looks ok though.
I've also been looking at the Samsung E530 - that looks like a nice phone too - but can't find a decent price for it yet! lol

Sal,
The use of codes and cashback through referral sites (quidco) can bag you a bargain, but, they often fail to honour the codes, and the cashback sometimes does not track. It is very complicated.
I ordered a pink E900 for £41 last week, I still haven't received it.
Have a look at hotdeals.co.ukWell life is harsh, hug me don't reject me.0
