How long till i have enough money?

Question

for an ipod touch 8gb? I get an allowance of 20 bucks every two weeks. My mom gives me 2.25 in lunch money every day, but i am a vergitarian so i bring a lunch from home or just don't eat.

so If i save the 20 every two weeks and the 2.25 how long until i have enough? This is on average!!! sometimes wi will be getting a bit more from babysitting and dog sitting and maybe selling things. Don't suggest site to get one free or an iphone cause i don't want ethier!!! Im only 13 so NO JOBS!!!

Answer 1

At 13 you should be able to do the math. Come on you will have to do Algebra soon if you are not already.

$20 every two weeks = $10 per week.

$2.25 a day = $11.25 per week if you save it all

With that alone you have $21.25 a week.

My shopping results on google priced them at $199-284 so let us say you can on average get one for $250.

Take $250 and divide by $21.25 or even round it down to $20 to be realistic as you might buy the occasional soda or other incidental along the way.

So...I get 12.5 weeks or about four months at the rate you are going.  

Good luck!

Answer 2

16 weeks assuming it's during school year.

By that time, though, Apple would have lowered the price (that's the current rumor, though it might not be true.

Answer 3

u are better getting a zune and its alot better. and u can do the math to figure it out how long. theres 360 days in a year and 30 days in a month. your getting 20 dollars every 2 weeks.

Answer 4

The ipod you are wanting is about $310 right now..  according to walmart.com

with your allowance only.. about 31 weeks, or  just under 8 months.

It will take less time with the money from lunches and the little bit you earn as well.
