I didn't even think to look what the regular price might be and I purchased ONE. The speed was as advertised and I am delighted with the drive. Feels like quality, performs like quality.

Today, needing something for my cats on Amazon, I went to see if I could afford the non-sale price on this same USB stick, as I'd love another. And the price is a current YIKE, at $371.68!!!!!

I guess I got a good deal for my only prime days purchase, but now I so wish I'd bought two....
Black Friday is just around the corner. I'll be starting up the thread at the beginning of October. Multiple pre-Black Friday deals will start popping up around then, so there's a chance Amazon will repeat this sale sometime during Oct~Nov. Quite a few stores price guarantee during this time, so if the price goes lower later on, the stores will refund the difference.

Stay tuned and keep your fingers crossed.
