so I get a call from a friend who has till the end of the month to spend her money from the university grant.
she does not know what to buy and asked me for ideas.

I got to thinking about it and I have a few ideas in mind but I thought I would post here to see what others think.
maan, why don't I ever get such pleasant problems.....

the budget is $999
right off the bat, she cannot buy clothes or laptop.
i'm unclear if the merchandise will be at her house or at the univ.

so far I have,
1) brand new nokia tablet for $400. this would be great to have
2) some kinda NAS device since she has a desktop and a lappy....(i'm hoping she will be allowed to keep this stuff at home)
3) maybe a media streamer, wi-fi/ethernet to connect the desktop to the tv. I know her husband dloads lots.
4) she can buy another laptop but she doesn't want to...just does not make sense.

she already has an ipod and a digital camera. she also bought lots of books and printer cartridges!
she cannot buy cell phones either.....no tv/dvd players or anything such.

basically, she should be able to justify it a little bit for her P.hd

How about spending money towards whatever the grant was for?

Seriously...It's cause of people like this that sometimes people who really need the money don't get it.
