Default Toddler buys real digger online


Source: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/8063769.stm

A New Zealand couple nearly found themselves in a financial hole when their three-year-old daughter bought an earthdigger in an internet auction.

The child, Pipi Quinlan, was trying out her online skills while her parents were asleep in bed.

Pipi's mother, Sarah, had left the computer logged on. The owner of the digger is not insisting on the sale.
