Digital Camera for Under £100

[humpy]

I need to buy a digital camera for my daughter that she will lose/break/drop-in-a-puddle so don't want to spend more than about £80-£100. Any recommendations are gratefully accepted...
Thanks

Get a second hand one. LOADS of decent spec ones going second hand for peanuts as people upgrade.

A good point - thanks - but I want to get a new one.

My local Lidl have a half price waterproof rubberised beastie for £50. Fairly simple, but ideal I would say.

I just bought a Kodak 8MP camera for £50 (for office use), and it’s a cracking thing. Great value for money.

8.2m pixels.
3 x optical zoom.
5 x digital zoom.
2.4in LCD screen.
Digital Image stabilization.

ETA : or hunt around for an older FX series Pana Lumix, they're great, but might be a touch over £100...
