Every year for Christmas Austin has on his list a DS. We did not want to get him one but told him he could save up his money and get one on is own. For his birthday he asked for the money so he could save up for a DS. He was able to save $ 100.00 due to odd jobs, birthday, and mowing lawns. He walked up to Game Stop and didn't have enough money to buy the DS with tax.
He got home very disappointed. We went to Game Stop's web site and they were selling them for $ 70.00 plus shipping. We bought it and he paid the extra to have is shipped overnight!
It came in on a Wednesday, he bought a game on Thursday, stayed up all night playing his game and got the DS taken away on Friday. He finally got it back about a week ago and I haven't seen him since.
I am very proud of him being able to save his money for something he wants and I only have to yell at him two or three times before he gets off and does his chores. (lol)
