just to note, this is an old USB 2.0 drive. meaning it has VERY slow transfer speeds. Would be ok as a cold storage type drive that you're putting some documents on for backup and don't plan on accessing often, but for regular read/write jobs this would be a bad option.

I would recommend against this USB flash drive as cold storage, at least for anything having cold storage as a backup. They need regular usage to maintain charge reliably.

Yep. I was disappointed to see this after the last deal was Astrobright colored paper with any purchase.

However, I will still be getting one, because you can just buy a <$0.50 notebook, comp book, pencils, etc, and get one, no minimum price to get one, and I can always use another notebook or writing tool haha. Lots of cheap BTS items too.

I did see mine had around 10-15 in a small box, I was able to use it to buy a .50 cent notebook. You can always buy as many as you like based on your store.

Got 1 today, the cashier had them in a fishbowl behind the counter. They were not in a blister pack, it was more like a piece of thin plastic wrap. Weird, it says it has capacity of 28GB in the properties, while the drive has 16GB printed on it. It is very slow though, which I expected...

Added the coupon online, then ordered two composition notebooks at $0.50 each for delivery. $1.00 total as a Plus member, with no tax because it's a "tax free weekend" in our state. So burned only $1.00 in rewards—nice!
