    Someone Has iPhone 5 Envy - and it's Not Me!

    We've reached a new point with our electronics...Angeline is now saving up to buy herself the iPhone 5!

    That's right - she is saving up her money to buy it for herself! She currently has an iPhone 4, which we bought as a replacement for the one she broke back in June.

    Y'all remember that one, right? She tripped while walking in the hallway and her iphone flew out of her hand, hit the wall, then fell to the floor...

    shattered iphone 4

    Well, Angeline has only had her new iPhone 4 for about 6 months, and I don't want to just give it away after she buys her iPhone 5. I think we paid $100 or $200 with our discounted upgrade option. That would be such a waste of money, we've done that with all of our other upgrades and I always hear about the person we gave it to dropping it or giving it to someone else when they upgrade...we might as well have just sold our old iPhones and used that money to help pay us back for our new ones.

    Since she is being so responsible and trying to save up for the new iPhone 5, I think we should let her sell her iPhone 4 using a service where we can sell my phone and then just use that money towards a new one! That way she can really understand what it's like to work towards a big purchase and figure out how to earn money to pay for it.

    Now, Angeline had about $200 saved from her birthday money, and she was down to $130 when she left for New Mexico last week. I wonder how much she has left, or if her iPhone 5 fund is completely depleted?

    Have you ever thought about selling your phone in order to be able to buy a new one?

      I have the option to update, but since there is nothing in the update that I want, I'm skipping it. Totally happy with my phone as is.

      The picture makes me so sad!!!! I have dropped my iPhone several times and I always gasp when I reach down to pick it up hoping it's not shattered. I still have my iPhone 3 but hope to upgrade within the next few months.

      I really should sell my old phones, I have three that are sitting in my drawer, doing nothing. I would like an iPhone but I don't want to pay several hundred dollars for one. My oldest has an iPhone4 and loves it so I think we're okay for now!

      Oh no bueno! 🙁 I would be livid (and frustrated) if my iphone 4 (not even the fancy Siri on my phone) broke. 🙁

      My Galaxy S2 is so beat up so I'm just hoping I can get the SIII soon, very soon. I'm going to go donate to these companies that want them I think.

      I always sell our phones after we upgrade to help offset the costs. It never covers the cost of whatever iPhone is out when we upgrade but it definitely helps!

      I have an iPhone 4 and I love it - I have no desire at all for an iPhone 5. An iPad? Well, that's another story.....

      I LOVE my iPhone 5! 🙂 I didn't have the iPhone 4, but I gave my iPhone 3 to my son. There's no phone service on it, but he can play games, etc.
