Need cheap new digital camera under $50

I'm in need of a cheap (and nasty?) new digital camera.

I have been tolling the ebay graveyards, to not much luck.

Can anyone throw me a bone of recommendation?

Price preferably under $50, only stipulation is that it must use SD memory cards

Cheap.. Nasty… sound like a job for DealExtreme(or similar)!

No idea at all how good it is but it sounds like this will be a toy/disposable camera.
worth looking through all the other sites that sell cheap little things.
LOL honestly i just found a Wiki link just for that. http://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/list_of_buying_sites

you can buy cameras starting at $63 from DSE. There was a $70 14MP camera on the officeworks website

I got a heap of them for $15 each as cheap gifts from Kmart a year or two ago…I'd check the dept stores & supermarkets, and the likes of DSE or OW for clearance specials, they always have something the need to move at a significant reduction! ;)

Just saw it in the Australia Post catalogue (Fathers Day) Page 5:
Sanyo Digital Camera VPC-S1213EX $49.95
12 megapixel, 3X optical zoom, HD720p movie recording.
"Hurry! While stocks last."
Good luck.
