Spotted this retractable Maxell USB stick in Play's sale. This is the cheapest I've ever seen a 4GB drive inc. delivery, though do correct me if you've seen a cheaper one.
For those who don't know - a USB memory stick is a little USB storage thing you plug into your computer and can store files on (they often go on keyrings). It's effectively the modern equivalent of the humble floppy disk.
Update 5pm 15 October: Undoubtedly eyeing some extra profit, the crafty folk at Play have put the price up to £6.99. It's still a bargain, just not such a great one.
For non-USB flash memory cards/sticks, see the full Cheap Memory Cards rundown.
