Your reasoning behind buying an iPad is fairly simple you think it looks cool, it's light and well, you just want to show it off. The main problem however is that you can't justify the purchase to your parents, after all it does cost in excess of $500 (and that's for the cheapest model) , so how do you go about bringing them round to your way of thinking and getting them to accept that the iPad really is an essential purchase? Well, it won't be simple, but here are a few tips which you can relay to Mum and Dad to bring them round to your way of thinking.
The first way to justify the purchase of an iPad is to make out that it's an educational resource which of course, it is. There are literally hundreds of apps you can purchase for the iPad and while the majority of your time using the device will most likely be spent browsing Facebook and talking to your friends, your parents don't need to know that. Some of the best educational apps include thesauruses, geography apps which allow you to see all the capital cities of the world and provide you with information on lots of different countries and basic interactive Maths apps which will boost your Maths skills! What's more, many schools are now utilising iPads to teach pupils, so how do you suppose you will get familiarised with the device unless you use it on a regular basis?
Another great way to bring your parents round to your way of thinking with regards to the iPad is with the price now, at around $500 it's most likely out of the range for a lot of children when it comes to putting it on the Christmas list. However, there are lots and lots of discounts to be had and with the recent advent of the iPad 2, retailers will be selling off the original iPad for far discounted prices. The best way to find iPad bargains online is to try and research discount codes or voucher codes for some of your favourite retailers there may also be the possibility of tapping into a few student discount options via some of the larger retailers (Amazon in particular adopts a student discount policy). If all else fails then by all means consider a second hand option; eBay and Amazon are full to the bring with traders looking to offload second hand goods.
