Mini I-Pod for christmas but I don't know ....

TaBunny

Hi my teenage daughter has asked if I could get her a [glow=red,2,300]mini I pod[/glow] for christmas but there's a few draw backs, um one is and I'm showing my age and thickness here, I'm not even sure what it is and secondly I wouldn't have a clue if I was getting the right bargain etc or where to buy the best one for the best price. So in true mse style I'm throwing myself into the open forum and asking for advice on where to buy and whats the best/cheapest I can get hold of. Would prefer if I could buy online as I can't get out easy, all help is appreciated, thanks in advance. ;D

Hi TaBunny

THIS is a mini iPod and it's the cheapest price on Pricerunner at Simply Computers , but you can also get it at Amazon for slightly more

hth  :)

Hey Sheel many thanks I should've known I could rely on you gonna go check it out now

Oops, its even worse as the £160 is ex VAT !!

I am the same as you Tabunny, daughter wants one, I know nothing except they cost a lot of money

God Edin_lass I nearly fainted, yes its a huge sum, but I've spoken to my daughter and she said "ok mum I'll have some jeans and cds then" bless I only wish I could afford one now

Oooh , that's misleading on Pricerunner , they've got the price wrong. I wont take their word for it in future

it does seem over priced doesn't it I'll keep searching but I think the mini-i pod is out of my league

I priced them in Boots, thinking I could use some of my points but its £179 there

She'll just have to make do with the personal cd player I bought half price in Sainsburys a month ago, lol.

Either that or we'll have to keep a shape eye out for them on the RO lists, we'll burn a hole in the floor getting to the counter lol

Thank you Dirk that is much appreciated but still too pricey for me I'm afraid I was hoping no more than around £50 but of course that was before I even realised what they were lol thanks again maybe it'll be a help to Edin_lass ;D

I bought mine directly from apple and they offer a free custom laser engraving service at the moment.  Also free P&P.  I ordered 4 days ago and today got an email saying it has left the depot.

Also, if you have a look on these boards, I found a code for £8 off, so in total I managed to get my girlfriend a personalised one with her name on it for £171 inc VAT.

By the way, the one for £160 is before tax and is £188 inclusive.

If I looked harder I probably could have got one cheaper, but thought it wasn't a bad price seeing as I bought it from the manufacturers.

Good Luck with whatever you buy!

Thanks Dirk for the link, but her being a girl and soon to be 14 its one of the little pink ones she wants! Its also one of the little pink ones that she won't get 8)
