I agree. Tell your parents and try an make an arrangement - maybe let them take it out of your allowance until you've paid them back, or do extra chores, or something. Even if you have to work to pay it back, at least they'll know what you're up to and why you're doing it. If you take responsibility for it from the beginning they'll be much more willing to trust you in the future, and even if they get pissy about it, it can't be worse than if you didn't tell them up front and waited for them to find out.

furthermore, your parents may know a way for you to make the money, they may know of a temp job going nearby or something

kind of good news, kind of bad news
i was planning on telling them tomarrow, but my brother Just got into a car accident and has like a $1,000 of damage, not the worst that could happen but it shure as hell doesnt help me.
it could make them not as mad at me cause my brother did alot worse, but they could be even more mad cause noe they are paying $1200 |
