How many Australian dollars should I take on a 3.5 month trip to Germany, Italy, France and England? I’m only 15, but I spend a fair bit of money. Any tips on budgeting?
My accommodation and meals are already paid for by my parents. I am going with 15-19 year olds, all my friends. The only money I will need is for souvenirs and snacks.

I see those “im a Mac” commercials everyday. It’s funny how a while ago this commercial clearly said that PC spends so much money on Commercials. Honestly I have only seen 2 or 3 PC commercials. In my opinion, PC’s are a whole lot better than Macs. But, for people who don’t know Computers that well, I would recommend a Mac because Macs (supposedly) don’t crash etc. But back to the question at hand, How much money exactly does Apple spend on Mac commercials which proclaim that PC spends too much money on commercials?
