Wow... I don't know where you do your shopping, but I wouldn't touch a $72
8G flash drive with a 10' pole... make that 20'.

You can get an 8G flash drive for $21.99 on newegg (promo code EMCBAAKAK)
with free shipping, tax free.

After the 15th, the price goes back up to $26.99 with shipping charges.
