If you are cheap, I found the bargain in the random cycling section @ Army & Navy.

Rear red LED tail light on clearance for $1.99. Comparing it to my $7.99 light from MEC, it works just about the same.

I wouldn't make the trip for anything else though, mostly Chinese cycling junk but I did pick up one of those handy zippered bands to store my phone and wallet when out cycling as I don't trust my bike jersey pockets to hold my phone and not have things fly out when I hit a bump.
