A place for dirt cheap DC memory cards!

Post by Hilltopper »

I don't know if this has been posted before or not, I didn't see it anywhere so I thought that I would bring it up.

I was recently in the "Dollar Store" knockoff "Deals:Nothing over a dollar"
I was looking around at some of their junk and found a whole load of 3rd party DC Memory cards for a dollar a piece. They also had a whole load of NFL 2K games in their original packaging for a dollar a piece. All of this was in Bowling Green, KY

I was in Jackson, TN and the Deals there had 3rd party 4x memory cards for just a dollar.

I was just curious to see if anyone else has a Deals in their area, and if their Deals carry DC stuff.

In case anyone is curious, the 3rd party company who made the memory cards is called NUBY. I've never heard of them before now, but the memory cards I bought all work so far.

Edit: I thought that I would do a little research to help others find a Deal$ near them. Deal$ is a sub-store of Save-a-lot.
here is a link to Save-a-lot's store locator that also shows where Deal$ store are located.

Ebgames RULES!!!!!

here are some scans that I did of the 4x memory card. The regular memory card looks exactly the same except it isn't transparent, it is white, and it does not have the black button to switch between pages.

Can anyone confirm if Save A Lot has these as well as their $Deals spinoff or is it exclusive to $Deals?

Thanks,
