Are you overpaying for that USB drive?

Today I went to the site and ran some stats on the deals submitted this month under Media and Storage category. Below is the summary which can be useful as a quick reference if you need to check if you are overpaying for that SD card or a flash drive.

There is some variation in prices based on the brand but overall these products are pretty much standardized and this is truly comparing apples to apples. All prices include shipping and some deals require a mail-in rebate. Enjoy!
