So, my friend's parents asked me if I could watch their two dogs on Sunday and Monday for $100 total, and I said yes (Who wouldn't? I know the people and dogs very well, so it'll be simple).
Now, I have some money of my own (About $25) that I'm going to combine into the $100 to get something/things. I've already been thinking of several options:
1) Left 4 Dead 2
Halo Wars
Shaun White Snowboarding
1600 Microsoft Points
$20 put on my Halo: Reach pre-order
That's about $105 total. I've had the games on the list before, and I enjoyed them a lot, but I traded them for other games in the past.
2) Some kind of PMP or MP3 player with Android OS. I really like the OS (Especially the UI of it), so I don't want one without it. I would get an Android phone, but I don't have enough money to pay for a phone, activation fee, and the first month of service.
I don't really know many out there, besides the few I've seen on DealExtreme. I really don't want to order from them, seeing as it takes ages (I ordered a 120GB HDD for my Xbox and 2 Memory Stick Pro Duos for my PSP, and it took more than 2 weeks). I know they ship from Hong Kong and have to deal with customs and blah blah blah, but if I can get one for under $125 on another site, or even at a store, I'd rather do that.
3) DSi.
I have a DS Phat right now, and it has quite a few problems. The L and R shoulder buttons don't work anymore, and the touch screen is starting to become more and more unresponsive. I play my DS quite a bit at home and when I'm in the car (I don't drive, just so no one asks why I'm playing my DS while driving), so I think an upgrade would be a good move. I want a DSi because of the extra features, but if I can't get one, I'll settle for a DS Lite with a better flash card (I have an R4 now, even though Wood makes it good).
That's really it for what I really want. I don't want to save the money, since I have nothing to save for (Except maybe the phone, but I really don't NEED one. Just want one). On top of that, it would kill me to save it and I'd probably spend it on something really stupid.
