Some of you may know i broke my MP3 Player and headphones. It's gonna cost me at least €400 to replace them.
So I'm gonna apply for a loan. However, i need a decent excuse for borrowing the money. I'm more than likely gonna get it, but I'd like to sound like i really need the money.
I'm gonna ask for €600 (Just in case  ).
Anyone got any ideas?
I was thinking of saying a mountain bike. But my bike cost me €250 and i don't think people would pay up to €600 for a bike anyway, so i don't think thats very realistic 
Also, My last loans were for my PC and upgrades (they must think i have a super-computer) so PC related ideas probably won't work._________________________________________________________________________________________Can anyone help me out. I was gonna buy a Creative Zen Vision: M as its the MP3 player I'm used to. I only need a new one because i managed to break that one. Anyway, I was wondering, I kinda need an updated phone too, so can anyone recommend a phone that would be durable (I'm not the kinda person that changes phone every second week. My current phone has been my phone for about 3 or 4 years) and that has a big memory. One other thing I'd want, and its pretty important, is a phone that would be easy to pick songs from and all that. MP3 players are pretty cool and all, and i loved my Vision: M, but if i can carry less things around with me then so be it. Anyone care to offer any advice? Cheers guys  |

Do you have a MP3 player that is also a Car and can make tea, Cos for that price it better do that and more.
But like most normal people your age would be doing,

But i doubt anyone will care that i bought an mp3 player. Do you have a MP3 player that is also a Car and can make tea, Cos for that price it better do that and more. But like most normal people your age would be doing, Say that your touring europe with a load of friends Its a Creative Zen Vision: M and the headphones are Sennheiser HD515's. The creative is about €300 and the headphones were €100. So... And touring Europe with €600? Talk about a budget tour lol |

Well there you go that must have been music to your ears.  I guess giving an excuse varies depending on who you speak to. |

What kind of MP3 players costs that much? Isn't the conversion rate double to USD? so $800 for an mp3 player/head phones? The most kickass high-tech mp3 player is like $400. But that's way overpriced.

According to the currency conversions it would, but electronics are generally cheaper in the US than they are in Ireland. Hence the monicker "Rip Off Republic". Ireland is one of the most expensive countries in the world I believe. |
