I was going to say the £19.99 collect in store 512mb one from PcWorld which was £59.99 normally but it must have been a misprice cause it's now £31.99 to collect instore a week on!!! But they might still be worth a look not sure if you couldn't beat them elsewhere though. I haven't had to get any books yet!

i saw some in Tesco's other day, 128Mb for about £13, and 256Mb for about £25-30

I have some 128Mb's on ebay on a buy-it-now £10.24 delivered

i'm not sure what i would need but i thought that a 256mb should cover it, not keen on trying ebuyer as their reviews tend to fluctuate. Aria looks ok, so i shall try them over the next couple of weeks, unless i get any more suggestions

https://www.ebuyer.com or https://www.dabs.com or even https://www.amazon.co.uk are your best bets. Check with shopbots as well, https://www.kelko.co.uk and https://www.dealtime.co.uk to make sure youare getting the best prices.

think carefully about the size you need as well. 256mb is a LOT for word files. 128mb or even 64mb is a much better and cheaper size to go for if you are only doing word documents/spreadsheets. If you are using graphics files (JPEG's etc) then a bigger usb key is needed; 512mb or 1gb.

thanks for an interesting thread, tis yet another thing currently on my shopping list.




and if it is any consolation, the first term of each year is usually the most expensive
