Also, once you get a job you probably won't want your job even though you want the income. Most people I know whom don't have a job want one because they are bored at home and poor. Those who do have a job are always tired after work, stressed while at work and don't earn enough for all the fatigue and stress they have to endure. Take your pick because both are shit and spiritually damaging. Some people are lucky and get cool jobs or decent colleagues, but it's a general rarity. |

Originally rented Tropico 4 and have been looking to buy it. Zavvi have consistently been the cheapest place to buy it. Just can't quite bring myself to trust them.
Thoughts on Zavvi anyone? |

Thoughts on Zavvi anyone?Zavvi are generally slow on delivery as they're based off-shore in Jersey (tax dodging scum! ) usually all their packages have a "searched by customs" sticker on and take around 5 working days to reach you, if you're lucky you'll get the game in 2-3 days (by my experience). I live on the south coast as well, geographically closer to Jersey. So it's possible that it could take longer if you live up north. |

Thoughts on Zavvi anyone?I found it tends to be cheaper than everywhere else, but the delivery sucks. when i bought Dirt 3 complete edition took about 8 days for delivery and Tropico 4 was expected to be dispatched "within 28 days" even tho it was in stock, so cancelled the order and went else where. |

| Thanks for the responses. I'll just have to wait patiently for prices to come down elsewhere, or get lucky on ebay. |

| Picked up Alice from shopto, can't go wrong for that price at all. Zavvi have some nice stuff but I always have troubles when I order from them, so I'll wait until the stuff goes cheaper elsewhere. |
Looking to boost Yosumin LIVE! Message, or add and let me know if you're interested. |

Seriously though, such a funny but true comment. Obvious, yet rarely stated.I'm in the same situation as the first poster, so I empathise. The thing is, you have to have money to move away from home to get to university. You don't actually get your student loan until you've been at university for 3 days to a week (assuming Student Finance are moving their butts and have already processed your application and are just awaiting confirmation from the university of your enrolment) and obviously you can't turn up and go through all the freshers bullshit at uni if you don't have nearby accommodation already secured. So you need to fund moving your shit across the country, paying to commute to uni from your new accommodation, paying for food so you don't pass the fuck out and of course there's paying the ridiculous deposit that the shit hole you're moving in to require. Depending on what part of the country you're moving to that's anywhere from £500 - £1000 you need... spare. Parent's who don't save any money for their kids uni fucking suck, I envy the foreign kids who have parents who actually invest in their education.
.... Sorry for going so off topic. |

.... Sorry for going so off topic.So many memories from reading these posts. At least when I went a few years back, it didn't cost that much. Degree hasn't done me much good though, been made unemployed twice in two years...
