Bang For Your Buck

Last night my dad decided to order cell phones for my bro and one of my sisters.  My sister wants the Sony Walkman and it costs $30.  She was willing to pay for it because she wants an MP3 player and $30 is pretty cheap for an MP3 player.  My bro found some kind of fancy phone for free and was trying to convince my sister to look at free music player phones.  She agreed to look and found one that looked nice but my brother didn’t think it was as nice as his.  Hence the conversation that followed.

Bro-  You don’t want that one.  Get this other one, it’s cheaper.

Dad-  But they’re both free.

Bro-  Yeah, but with this one you get more bang for your non-existent buck.

Nevertheless, my sister went with the Walkman.  But my dad had to upgrade our plan first and can’t order the phones until the new plan kicks in in June.

  1. Your brother is going to be a great mathematician. You know, they talk about minus zero and plus zero and crap like that.

  2. ^^ So true.
    My brother has the Sony Walkman and hates it. :)

  3. Yeah, my brother wants to get into all that science/engineering/math kind of stuff. Everything that I don’t like. :lol:

    Really? What does he hate about it? I think it looks cool, but I already have 2 mp3 players.

  4. He says the keys are tiny, it doesn’t hold a lot of music and he should’ve gotten an iPhone. (His words.)

  5. Your brother sounds like a character.

  6. Who mine?
    Someday I should write about him.

  7. I wish I could get an iPhone.
