I was at Walmart with my dad and he brought me a Sandisk 32 Flash drive and an off brand mouse and the flash drive was only $5 for 32GB. I didn't know they had gotten that cheap which is great for what I wanted it for, but I didn't need that much space.

BTW, Walmart no longer sells flash drives below 16GB. I really only need 4GB for my purpose which is to install Linux LiveUSB images.

I had a relative pick up some flash drives at Walmart recently too, 32GB size. A package with 2x SanDisk Ultra 32GB USB3.0 for $24.99. Was showing on the web site for $19.99.

Said that was the only USB3.0 ones.

So I'm guessing, that for $5, you ended up getting a USB2.0 32GB SanDisk?

That's a pretty decent price, the cheapo Adata 32GB flash drives at Newegg are still mostly $5.99 or more.

The package doesn't say USB2, but That is what I am assuming.
