Anybody know of a bargain basement for SD cards? I need 150 of them - as small as I can find - do they still even MAKE 64mb cards? probably 128mb?

Overstock.com and shop.com are good places for those... and they have them in the sizes you mentioned.

Worst case... E-bay

Sounds like something to give away to people with your CV package.

Personally, I've been getting great responses when including a packet of tea to enjoy while listening to my demo...

FWIW, the places listed were selling them for $2 and up.

I'm using the SD cards for MOH updates on a corporate job I just won. 150 locations - quarterly updates, so it'll be 600 cards total. I know there are easier ways to do it - but these folks are very low-tech. The simple "pull out one card - poke in another card" method won me the bid over others proposing broadband solutions.

I like the tea idea - I wonder if I can buy a couple of cases of those little airline bottles of liquor??? Maybe I'll sound better if they're sloshed.

Send them directly to me(the mini-bottles, that is -)... hang the other guys... I give you a great critique that way.

I am the king of cheap...

don't let the multiple U87s or the vintage tube mics throw you. If I can find a solution for a cheaper cost, I'll take it.

FWIW, in most states the liquor thing is illegal (don't think I didn't think that one out). I found out too late and had 500 bottles of spiced rum with my name and website on them sitting around.

Needless to say, I wound up drinking a lot of Coke over the next month or two...

for some reason, those were the best weeks of my life Laugh

Actually, I'm loving these http://www.branders.com/catalog/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=178611&FOLDER%3C%3EbrowsePath=83271&FOLDER%3C%3EbrowsePath=83307&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=83307&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=79659&bmUID=1169777226857&breadcrumb=true

I give them to my best customers (nobody needed to tell me, but it's considered an honor to receive one from the customers I send them to... those who've been there will understand Smile

)

Once I'm done with tea, I'll probably toss in some popcorn (that used to get some great responses too)
