What to get for my birthday! (under $20)

My parents/grandpa are ordering my DX today. So I’ve got that covered.

But… all of my friends are asking me what I want for my birthday thats like… under $20.

SO WHATS SOME COOL STUFF!!! I need some ideas here!!!

Any and all help will be appreciated.

$20.

then you can buy more uni stuff.

of course more uni stuff!!!

hmmmmm…dx eh?

these are pretty spiffy

and uhhh…

this entire catogory is loaded with stuff…

Cheap video games. They have a lot of those Greatest Hits that are $20, some very good games.

Normally… I would do that… But its a girl I like that wants to get me a present… and asking for video games wouldn’t be the greatest idea.

Hmmm… are any of the Sims 2 expansions out for under $20… cus’ she plays sims 2…

And also, it might be kind of weird asking for straight cash.

She wont let me say no though. So I have to think of something.

I find it sad that you are asking us for your help, that must mean that there is nothing you want now, so I would recommend asking her to give it to your favorite charity.
or
Give a homeless person a pizza?

But I would be doing the same thing.

Yes, I find it sad that I am asking you guys too. You think this would be an easy question… but right now its really hard. I’m not sure what (if anything) I want. Thanks for all your help though, its really appreciated.

My friend bought a secondhand PS2 + 20 games for $35!!! It was from a friend to another friend, but still! There are deals everywhere if you know where to look.

I’d ask for money if I were you. Or giftcards to certain stores. Or just a SIMON giftcard - they act like visa cards so you can use them practically anywhere, but you can’t withdraw cash from the card, you can only spend it.

I wish my friends asked me “what do you want for your birthday?”…I just hope that they wouldn’t clarify “under twenty dollars”.

Make her buy you dinner. That’s an easy date right there. :wink:

Lol… Not a bad idea.

Not a bad idea at all!

I met a girl this morning named Jolene. I’m pretty sure that she thinks I’m around 24 years old (based on our surroundings, this is an accurate assumption), but I’m not entirely sure. I don’t know if I’ll ever see her again/when I’ll see her again, but I’d really like to. I should have asked for her number as we were leaving, but instead I just made a comment that made her laugh and say “see you around!”…damn my slow thinking/shyness. She was even wearing a Janis Joplin shirt, so I know we have the same musical interests! People who are interested in the same music genres tend to be more compatable than those who have very different musical preferences (in my experience).

Overcome this shyness-around-hot-girls while you’re young and you will have a happier life :o :smiley:

DWAS has a good idea right there; if you like this girl and she’s willing to buy you something ≤ $20, ask her for a date! “Dinner and a movie” is all you have to say. Bring along a couple extra bucks to make sure everything works out fine, go to a decent restaurant (before the movie, this is important), and then go see something that she wants to see and that you can agree on.

pedal wrench.

Or you could skip the movie part and get a free prime rib at your local steakhouse. :smiley:

Well said…I wish I could’ve done that even a few years ago, I’m already behind in the shyness department for my age.

and im 13

I hate my stupid shyness around girls.

Yeah. Weird thing for me, is that I’m actually not that shy when just talking with hot girls, joking with them, hugging or even spanking them on occasion. It’s when the situation becomes remotely close to the dating world that my nerves really set in.

Yes… I’m pretty shy. And I really hate it. I am getting better though. :slight_smile:

Thanks for all your advice, I might just have to actually use it.

This. :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: http://nindb.classicgaming.gamespy.com/sns/images/box/4l_us.jpg

You should get condoms they are good to have… nobody wants aids, herpes or anything else.
