Ok so I have always shared computers with friends and stuff. Right now I live with my best friend and we only have one computer which is hers and it's located in her room, we are sharing the internet bill though. But I am hardly ever able to get on because she's always in here doing stuff or her boyfriend is asleep in the room. So I was trying to save up for my own laptop but I am always running into more important things to do with money. Like right now, Christmas, so I have $0. And I want a really nice one too.

I was just wondering if there was any way I could get some kind of a loan or something but I don' really know what kind of loan or how I would go about getting one. Any ideas?

go to dell.com or newegg.com and sign up for one of their credit cards, and pay off the laptop monthly (assuming you have decent to good credit).
i would pay it off weekly, like 50 dollars a week or so and remain on a steady budget for other things.
i make around 300 something a week, maybe more based on commission, and i fiance my car and some other small things. i limit my spending money to 100 a week at most, and it works out well for me.
at the end of the month, i have at least 200 or so saved up in the bank for other things, so that goes into my savings account.
if you have decent credit, and if you know, not think you have a steady budget plan, i'd say apply for the credit card and finance one.
