Good Lord, He Did It Again!

Posted by

It was late at night and kid won’t get off my shoulders. The iPark It iPhone game looked cool enough and worthy of the $0.99 price to get him off my back. I approved the purchased, logged out to avoid another kid online purchasing incident, and then later on sneaked into bed in the next room.

Shortly before dawn I woke up with a dream or dizzy thought of kid having done it for a second time, buying games online while I’m unaware. It was silly as I know I logged out, but being who I am, and to make sure my iPhone sleeps besides me, I made my way through the dark to the phone in the next room and took it back. I just unlocked it and boom!

Kid's Second Online Purchase

How does he do it? And I wish there were some decent apps among them! Well at least he finally got that fishing game he always wanted. And now I know why people use non-related animal pictures on their apps and books… targets totally different demographic! I’m sure glad he didn’t buy the diamond app though :P.

Things aren’t stopping here however. Few days ago he was shouting about some game he found to which I didn’t show much interest. Next time I opened the iPhone Safari I found this.


Kid's Amazon Purchase Attempt

Luckily I use the Amazon app for iPhone for that, and the Safari session isn’t tied to my account. Otherwise this could’ve slipped in a quick checkout purchase of mine. Good attempt though.

    ROFL! I love this kid!

    The games were free or 0.99 as well? Maybe the logout button doesn’t really logout, or just not immediately?

    I forsee in the near future a broke Bashar, spanking a kid furiously.

    MBH: Heh… Sure you can ROFL. I paid for it and I can still LOL at it. Some are FREE, other are more than $0.99!

    Marzouq: Indeed. It’s the part of it that makes me swallow the bill. But I say twice is good for 1 week :(.

    Haider: You already said that! Ohh wait, that was the girl back then.
