Where can I get really short USB cables?

[Mrvile]

I need a male A to male B USB cable that's like a foot long and hopefully for dirt cheap. Anyone know where I can get one? Most places I go have like minimum 3 foot...

Thanks!

12" is not short.

monoprice has 6' A-B cables for 95 cents.

be careful to make sure your mom doesn't see it. she might think you're gay.

12 feet would be long, but 12 inches is pretty short

On that note, I've got only one footlong ethernet cable at home, and I have no idea where I got it. The rest are at least 6'. I wish I had more shorter ones for hooking up things that are directly adjacent.

Sorry, my response was a totally lame parody attempt of the "10lbs of bulk beef" thread.

No, it's one of those infamous threads where a guy's mom found a box that a male-to-male cable came in and accused him of being gay. He posted the story. ATOT was itself. Hilarity ensued.

Thanks but I already tried that. Note that most of the results are for 12-ft.

Hmm apparently I didn't get the memo.

I'll take a look tomorrow, but I'm pretty sure we carry the 1' Cat5e and Cat6 cables at Home Depot.

Home Depot does have those, as I bought 3 or 4 from there myself.

I was working in another department for a month and they changed damn near everything in my department (electrical) so I haven't had time to see what we got rid of and what all of the new stuff is.

We're using new people for resets and changing a bunch of crap because of home office, so I didn't know if we still carried them. Carrying all sorts of new crap like 3" PVC fittings (but not the conduit itself, isn't that wonderful) and a wider selection of recessed lighting, including 3" cans. Couple of new tools too.
