My kids have forbidden me to speak of our Disney Trip..updated 5/17

Go to ebay and look at laptops on there!! Also, can your mom just let you use hers for a while? You know we got internet at work!!!! ;)

Are they all used on ebay? I have never used that service before. I am going to try to bribe my mom into getting me a computer on her credit card. But hopefully it will dry out and work but Adrian said that if the power went off after the water hit then the circuit board is fried.

Do you have to have a new one? They have used, refurbished, brand new, etc on there. I will help you look tomorrow!
 
OK good news for the day. My mom was going to share her computer with me until I said I wanted to take it to Florida. Well then she said we can go on Friday to Best Buy and she will put a new computer on her credit card and all I have to do is make the monthly payments on the card which are $24! :cool1: So I don't have to take money out of my Disney account :banana: Ok ya'll have a great night I should have been in bed over an hour ago :laughing:
 
That's fantastic news! Your DMom is wonderful to let you charge it. :thumbsup2

Now you have no worries....only Disney sweet dreams. ;)

Did someone (hlrababy) mention Ebay, I love it. :love:
 

As I said in a PP my computer was damaged and I had to get a new one. My mom agreed to buy one for me as long as I paid the CC bill each month. We went today and here is what we got


Here is my new Computer

I am so happy with what we got. My mom is awesome to do this for me. I treated her to lunch for all she did for me. She did tell me she would be using the GPS also :rotfl:

Gotta go to work to earn money for the trip.

I had to buy the stuff for the trip anyway lol I just don't have to pay all of it right away. Mine started working again this morning :scared1: but the desktop in the bedroom is almost shot anyway so I let the kids have the old one. I went and got the computer today since they had to optimize it and make a recovery cd. It has a webcam built in lol. :rotfl:

No you didn't have to buy that stuff for your trip anyways!!! I never heard it come out of your mouth! Well....you better pay it off as soon as you can or else you will be paying minimum payments for the next 5 years!
 
No you didn't have to buy that stuff for your trip
Aw come on you know she is a southern girl and we southernen gals just have to take certain things on our trips.
A GPS? Why not? There are so many backroads down here you need one to find your way around( well at least that's my story and I'm sticking to it:rotfl2:) Enjoy your new toys.

See my point exactly. I have never driven in Orlando and I don't want to get lost. Ty I have to go catch up on the boards now that they are up again :surfweb:
 
I love all of your new stuff !!! :lovestruc

Is your favorite color PINK? :laughing:

I have been wondering how the GPS works, do you need to have a service plan afterwards or is it a one shot purchase? (excuse the blonde in me) :rotfl:

Cute camera it may be similar to the one I just bought. Bring on the pics! princess:

Have a great week....:cloud9:

I asked after your question about the GPS...didn't think about that when I bought it :lmao: But my friend said it was free.

I have to take my computer back to the store. I brought it home Saturday and it keeps freezing up on AOL. I am going to exchange it for another one I hope :rotfl:

Angela......you drove last there last year!!!! Girl, you wait till I see you tomorrow!:goodvibes
 
I was pretending to be the voice on the GPS tonight at dinner. :laughing: My DD thought I was hysterical. I told her it tells us where all the McDonalds are on the way down...:rotfl: She laughed and asked if it will tell us where there's a Build a Bear. :rotfl2:

I may decide to look into getting one, my DMom said we didn't need it because we've driven down there so many times. I agree but it may be a fun gadget to pass the time. ;)

Good luck with the laptop issues. :wizard:

Heather you forget that I was a passenger in the car on the trip from he$$. I did not drive once and I was asleep most of the way. Plus we got lost everyday and had to go through the toll booths more than once :rotfl:

I haven't even taken the GPS out of the box yet. I guess I better learn how to use it in the next 58 days :banana:

My DD loves her build a bear. She is in the watching Twilight for the 5th time. I think she is in love :love: :banana:

Oh and she said uh uh.
 
So I PP that my new computer was freezing up when I tried to go to AOL. I started the day by working for a few hours. I got off at 12 and then went to the bank to cash in the coins I had in the change jug. I got 75 for the money which I used to buy Disney Dollars :). I then went with my best friend to the Olive Garden for lunch. Well whatever I ate did not agree with my stomach so for the next hour I was sick. Then I went to Best Buy in Kennesaw to take the computer back and exchange it. I was told to go to the Geek Squad to see about it. Well the geek squad told me over and over that there was nothing wrong with my laptop and that all I needed to do was use firefox. I was speaking to him for 20 minutes and they made me feel like an idiot and that I did not know anything about what was going on. I was getting madder and madder so I took my computer and went to the check out with my friend. The lady noticed I was mad and she got the customer service lady involved who also repeated over and over and over the word firefox. I explained that I have used last night and I did not like it. Well then the manager gets involved and tells me to again try firefox because IE sucks and so does AOL. Again the word firefox was thrown around multiple times. I was so ticked off that my face was the color of a tomato so I took my computer and left. I then went to the mall to walk and walked the mall for over 2 hours. I decided I was not going to be forced to keep a computer that was freezing up. I went to the Best Buy in Acworth and went to the customer service desk and spoke with the nicest girl there. I was told to go pick out a new computer and they would waive the 15% restocking fee. I went and found a HP that I really liked. I was apologized to numerous times for something they did not do. I was ready to return my laptop and get the money back but they saved the day. When I brought the laptop home I went straight to AOL through IE and not firefox and it did not freeze. That tells me that I had a bad computer and I knew what I was talking about. My computer is not pink anymore :sad1: but I really like it. Here is a picture of it.
