1GB / 2GB SD cards?

Greetings,

This might seem an odd request since usually "bigger = better" when it comes to SD cards, but has anyone spied these being offloaded cheap at any stores in the post-Xmas sales?

When travelling for a few weeks, I like to use lots of smaller SD cards and store them in my bags when full rather than store all photos on a larger card and risk disaster for all photos if there's a card error. I was fortunate on one safari in Africa that a single SD card failed so all I lost were a couple of days worth of photos, not a couple of weeks.

The cheapest I've seen online is at MSY ($6 for 2GB Kingston) but these are now so small and undesirable to most people, perhaps you've wandered past a display in a store where they were practically giving them away so they could stock the (generally) more desirable 16GB SD cards? It has to be in-store, not online, due to a rapidly approaching departure date, and I'll likely buy them tomorrow.

Thanks in advance!

  • I got a stack of 12 2gb Microsd's unopened , $50?

    • Thanks, but I was looking for the full size SD cards, and it would not have made it in the mail from Sydney to Melbourne in time anyway. Hope you can find someone else who is interested in the deal!
