I was wondering how much a flash drive costs? I was looking for a 1 GB one, and someone said that they were 30 bucks for 4 of them, which I think is REALLY cheap. So is this person hi, or are they really that cheap?

I've heard of a 11 GB flash drive for over $1,000, man. Take the offer.

Yeah, I'm gonna go to the store and see if it's real or not. But it does seem a little strange. But wth. I don't care how it sounds if it's true. :D

Hmm, not bad. Then maybe that deal was real. Still sounds odd though. Four 1 GB flash drives for 30 bucks. It was at Costco, which makes the price even less, but IDK.

I must say, that's a good deal on some flash drivage!

Flash Drives can range in many sizes in prices. I seen one once that was 15GB! and it costed an arm and a leg.(very expensive)

Make sure to look to get a flash drive that has a lock switch. (like old 3.5 floppys did) its a nice feature to have. just flick the switch and it wont delete/write!

I got some free flash drives from microsoft, they are only like 190 something MB, but hey, they were free! Microsoft partner program - I am not even a member, bnut for some wierd reason, I got on the mailing list for free stuff.:D

Wow.. $4000 for a 32gb flashdrive, or I could get a external harddrive that can hold so many times more and cost fractions less.. how will I ever decide?

are you guys sure the prices are correct for those flash drives?

Because external hard drives, lets say for one that holds 500gb, costs around 250ish US dollars.

Yes because flash drives are portable and can hook up to any computer. They come in handy!
