Default Haha, suckers!
1. Needed a wireless CF card for my Pocket PC (yes, "needed" )
2. Cheapest was $100 before $60 rebate: $40 net for the mathematically impaired
3. Went to CompUSA to buy it
4. Was listed as $70 there
5. Bought it anyway because it was the cheapest
6. Did the rebate just for you-know-whats and giggles
7. Got an e-mail today saying the check will be on its way

So, I got a wireless CF card for $10. For comparison, they go for four times that on eBay.

Well, 4 years ago, I bought McAfee VirusScan for $70, got an $80 rebate voucher, and McAfee paid me $10 back to use their program for free. Beat that!

filburt, aren't you the one always saying "you get what you pay for"?

And someone [high]supposedly[/high] working for NASA shouldn't have to worry about cheap like you do.
