Argos have a 3megapixel one for 33 quid.

Thats not bad, but anything cheaper? (at least 1 megapixel please)

Needs to be on the high street rather than online.

I'm not really after great quality. Argos have a 3mega one for 33 quid, which is looking the best so far, but any cheaper ones would be considered.

(too easy to lose/get nicked to spend more )

I saw a quite cheap camera in woolworths that was 5 mega pixels. I think it was 50 quid. Sometimes you just gotta look in the most unlikely places!

I'm going to ask for one for Christmas I think.

What pixel (or whatever), is a good camera?

Thank

That camera from Argos only comes with a 2mb memory card, so you'll also need to buy more memory.

I bought a cheap £33 camera from Comet with 3 mega pixels and it was total crap. I bought it to take pictures for Ebay, and it was such bad quality. Really was a waste of money.

Went in to Woolworths this afternoon and indeed they have a Vivitar 5MP camera for £49.99 (half price sale), which as I need one, I duly bought.
