    picked up a couple of these in the €2 place in nutgrove sc earlier.
    work well but ive only tested on sd card so far. they look like usb memory keys. They are a real steal at this price so I stocked up ;)

    They are the gadget tech packaged ones that a lot of these places seem
    to stock so id imagine many of the €2 places may have them.

    Also got a €2 usb vacuum for getting annoying crumbs out of the keyboard :D

    Cool thanks for that, these are about €10 in Tesco. I know the GadgetTech range in the €2 Shop; great range, handy gadgets, cheap as chips.

    use them all the time for bits and bobs like that..

    max i've ordered in one go would be around $20 worth of stuff, so customs don't bother with it...

    delivery is slow, as in 1-2 weeks, but well worth it in the end :p

    Small valued items under about €20 are exempt from taxes/duties etc. Or maybe that's just from the EU? Anyway - I've got lots of stuff from them and had no customs problems.

    No customs on items from inside the EU (except nasty things like cigarettes and alcohol). Everywhere else once it's over €22 CIF (i.e. including packaging, insurance and freight) or over €45 CIF if it's a gift you pay duty on it.
