eBaying for a portable DVD player

I have been thinking of what to give to swithart for his birthday this month. Yay, it's gonna be so soon. He thinks of getting a new laptop with a bigger memory so his will be passed on to Triz (really??? !!!). BUT... our budget won't let us for now. See, we still are so indebted these days, super! I asked him what he wants to have aside from a new laptop and all I got as an answer is a new portable DVD player for Triz. You see, Triz is in a stage right now where she watches her shows and fave programs most of the times and when we three are in our bedroom, it's either swithart or me who's gonna let go of our laptop to grant her request of "Boz the Bear", "The Wiggles", "Dora", "Barney", or "Elmo". We don't have a TV and a player here in our bedroom so we end up sacrificing one of our laptops which isn't so good on our part as we've got tasks to accomplish at a certain time. I would love to get a compact and small laptop, even if it has a small memory, as long at it has a DVD player in it, but sadly, most of those below 10 inches laptops with less than 10GB memory in less than $300 price don't have what I am looking for. So now, I am eBaying on a new portable DVD player hoping I could get one in less than $50 price. Hmmm.... you think I could get one? I hope so. I'll post it here if I could. :) Stay tune!

Good luck with that, I am not sure what they sell for around here. Have you checked at a Walmart or such for new prices? You don't need something fancy I am thinking.
Or, just a thought, you can sometimes get a small TV with the player built in now.
I hate shopping for my kids sometimes especially when money is tight.
