This is related to previous posts, but somewhat better.

The item is a Lexar 4X 48MB compactflash card with a USB &quot;Jumpshot&quot; CF reader. Note that the reader can only be used with USB formatted (read &quot;Lexar&quot;) CF cards. To get the deal, go through brandsforless to J&amp;R Music World and purchase the Lexar card for 119.99 (I'd post a link, but you'd have to through bfl anyway, so...). The item you're looking for is Mfg# CF048-235. Purchase it and go ahead and get the FedEx 2-day shipping (or anything other type that is <$20).

Bfl will provide you with a rebate for free shipping and a $29 rebatesince you're cost will be over $79 (this expires on Oct 1 or with 500 rebates; I'm hoping they remove it after 500 people use it...

Finally, there is a $40 rebate for the media since it's the old &quot;slow&quot; 4X type.

Total cost: 119.99 + 15.95 (shipping) - 15.95 - 29.00 - 40.00 = 50.99

You can do similar stuff with the other 4X Lexar cards (see rebate form).

One flaw in the otherwise good plan, BFL free shipping is given under the following conditions(read at the bottom of the BFL free shipping page):

&quot;Free shipping refunds cover the standard shipping rate only. Next day air and 2nd day air are not included.&quot;

Therefore make sure to use ground shipping, otherwise BFL will nor refund your shipping. Good deal otherwise, RandomCoil.
