So this came up

[Mermaid_Auquita_123]

So me and my mom were “Fighting -Talking” I had just had a big knee surgery so I was saving up for my tail and like that mom said I might not be able to do that. So I was crying I told her this is as been my dream since I was 4 But I have to save up for a new laptop so I’m not getting my mermaid tail maybe ever

Im sure you'll get it eventually!! It sucks when things get in the way, but dont give up hope!

Time to focus on the Black Fridays Ads website to find the best deal for the laptop. You'll have more money left over to save for a tail if you dedicate yourself to find a good deal on a laptop.

Fighting-talking... I know the feeling, Auquita. You have my sympathies.

Slim's right, and I'd go a step further -- if you're still in school, I'm sure there'll be some great deals you can take advantage of, like Microsoft's Office student discount.

If you're able to do part-time or freelance work, that will help a lot too.

All the best! You're still young and have time to save up, so don't let go of your dream. Google the Stockdale Paradox -- I talk about it in the time management thread here as well :)

Keep living and saving, and you'll be there before you know it.

Sorry, my mistake. Can you share a little more about your finances and cash flow, if you're able to here?

My mom mostly pays for everything but I have an alliance $20 each Friday but I still don’t think my mom wants me to do this. I don’t really want to talk about-it it just too upsetting

Understood. Hang in there :)

Hm. Does it actually have to be a new laptop? Maybe a used business one does the job, too. Where I live there are shops selling second-hand buiness computers, cleaned, checked, with warranty and for a quite small price tag. Plus, re-using those old leasing machines cuts down on electronic waste, so it could be some kind of win-win situation.

So I spent some time thinking about if there was any possible fix to this problem so you have a tail of some kind....and I got dumb luck. Keep in mind it's one of those you get what you pay for type of thing but there a tail company that makes cheap tails with cheap monofin in Utah. The website is http://shop.shimmertail.com At first quality of the tails is no where near the prices they are asking however I got bored and randomingly typed in Save90 as a coupon code and it reduced the prices by 90%. I think their shipping cost is $7 flat. Like I said that you get what you pay for in quality but it's at least is a full tail set for barely under $20 but it's a start.
