The holiday season is here and deals are popping up all over for computer hardware. This is a breif summary of the lowest prices I've seen on a few SSD's including mail in rebates ($20-$30) and shipping. I had been watching prices on these SSD's since June of this year before I recently purchased my first SSD. With this, you can know if the deal is good or if you should hold off for a better one.

90GB Corsair Force 3: $90 after MIR, newegg shell shocker on 12/15/2011

when a 500GB ssd comes out for $50-100, i'll think about getting one. Until then, c'est la vie.

You'll be hard pressed to even get a 500GB hard drive for that now
