    Where can I buy earphones?
    Hi all

    I broke a pair of earphones in my last week of Uni before Christmas then on a drunken night out snapped another pair.

    Anyone know where I can pick a cheap pair of earphones in a shop and online? I just don't know anywhere that sells them and I need them for Monday/Wednesday latest. The 'order online' went when my Dad disappeared today with my jacket with my card in it!

    Supermarkets usually do really cheap ones, otherwise I would have said online...

    Amazon, Argos, HMV, play.com, currys, pc world, the Apple store, all off the top of my head. Do yourself a favour, go to Amazon and spend £25 on the Sennheiser CX-300, relatively inexpensive and miles ahead of most things you'll find for cheaper.

    Gumy headphones (earbuds), they last about 10months and have good sound, 2 for a tenner, or 7 quid each at Asda, just until you can get your card back and get some decent ones online
