    Hah! Fat chance of me not getting carried away on Ebay! Seriously considering going online in boxing gloves to make it harder to click on the link lol :D

    Hi,
    I got a very good camera from Morgans a few years back. Saved a fortune on films.
    7day shop is worth a look too. Bought rechargable batteries from them. Get prints in 50 lots for £5.

    We got a little AGFA one from Dixons for ~£35 for our 6yo last birthday. Low res, two buttons, no zoom but 1" screen and does the business.

    Half price Credit Card digital camera, plus a second camera free - limited offer
    The world's thinnest digital camera!
    Price £19.99

    The Credit Card Camera is the same size as an everyday credit or debit card, measuring just 8 x 5cm, less than half a centimetre thick, and weighs just 35 grams. Despite its size it manages to cram in a 64MB SDRAM memory, store up to 26 images in high-res mode, and 104 in low-res mode and it features its own built-in viewfinder! A major feature of the Credit Card Camera is its revolutionary battery, which re-charges while you download pictures to your PC - a brilliant time-saver.
    This camera is easy to use, and also boasts auto exposure and white balance adjuster, to give crisper detail in bright and dim areas of a picture. You'll be pleasantly surprised by the picture quality. It's the ultimate convenient camera

    I wouldn't waste your money on those credit card sized cameras mentioned above. The pictures they take are really bad. I would put the money towards something that least takes a clear picture in the light of day.
