simpely cry

try asking if you can buy it online and have it sent to your house

just keep pestering her about it ans she'll be sure to give in. if that doesn't work CRY!

Save your money then she cant stop you from buying it.Thats what I did anyway!!!

Ask your dad

do odd job for yr mom and then u ask her!!

ask her to buy you it for christmas

Well, here's a couple options:

A) First, maybe you could tell her you'll keep your room clean for a month, or maybe do
something such as get good grades at school, in exchange for her buying it.(I used this
one... Had to get straight A's at math , and now, I'm getting A+, so I'm getting the
expansions. Yippee!)

B) Ask for it in your birthday, if she doesn't give in ,ask some family member, and if
not, then save money, until you get enough to buy it.

C) Finally, you could maybe try searching, or get a copy from someone who has it. Or you
could search around the stores to see the cheapest Zoo Tycoon game (the one you want, but
compare prices) and make a deal with your mom about her buying it for you, and you making
something like washing the dishes for certain time...
