where to find....

a cheap mouse? I have killed mouse number four. the first three died of unnatural causes...the little hub that sticks out got dinged over and over and over again...so a $25 mouse 3x...ugh, it sucks. Then the fourth time, I actually got a $15 Microsoft corded mouse. I didn't care that it was corded, because it meant there was nothing long and cumbersome sticking out of the side of my lappy (my old lappy had a port in the back...that was MUCH better), inviting itself to get jacked up left and right. So....the corded mouse did okay but the cord is now starting to fray. I'm really hard on this hardware, so I need to find cheaper ones if I'm going to be replacing them every 3 months. Anyone know?

I got my new mouse at Future Shope (canadian "sister" store to Best Buy)...the sign said it was $18.99 but I paid $30 when I got to the till - and I just didn't care enough at that point to argue, lol. But anyway, I love it...if only I hadn't done something to the settings to make my "back" and "forward" buttons stop working!!

ETA: this is the one I got: http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pr...angid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10088567&catid=14265

I got a wireless logitech at SuperTarget for the kids desktop (it has one of those port things though - maybe not ideal for a laptop) for like $14.99 I think - so far so good. The previous two I got were no-name brands and ate through batteries literally every week - didn't matter if they were Duracell or cheep $1 spot Target batteries - it was getting ridiculous!

Good luck

I was piecing my dd a costume for a school musical from clothing @ Goodwill this week..and they had computer mice for $4! (used obviously but some looked really nice)

I just picked up a logitech for $9.88 at Walmart. I don't see it on their website, but maybe your store has the same one.
