WD MyBook Elite 1tb USB 2.0 at Costco for $49.99

[sed8em]

Just got back from my monthly Costco run and they had a stack of Western Digital MyBook Elite 1tb external USB 2.0 HDDs for $49.99.
The Costco I went to was Pentagon City, VA.

It is the identical drive to this one listed on Amazon:
Amazon MyBook Elite 1tb

Edit: Its pretty darn nice. I didn't use the WD backup software, Amazon reviews universally state it sucks. I did install the MyBook software so I could customize the label on the little LCD screen. Not the fastest external in the world but at $50 who cares, I'm just going to use it to back up all my movies.

do you have a pic of the receipt or something that we can use to potentially price match somewhere?

Wai. I could so use one of these damn things.

[silent-circuit]

Wonder if Walmart will pricematch off that... probably not.

 

[sed8em]

I doubt it if there isn't a local Costco.

Ha! When we were members we always called it the $200 club since we'd go in there for some great deal and never came out with less than a $200 bill

I always buy 200 cokes and foot long hot dogs. What drive is in it?

the .97 ending denotes a clearance price. should jump on these soon if they are in stock at that price as they will probably clear them out of inventory

The only thing missing off his sales ticket are Turkey Burgers.

 

[ShepsCrook]

The real deal are the Pork Chops for $16.16!!!
