Yeah, when I learned that trick or was like found gold. I think name branded floppies were $5-10 each (I'm looking at you Verbatim!) back when I owned a ][e, and the few computer stores didn't start selling no name floppies until later. I remember buying 50 for $50 from a friend of a friend. He came over one evening and handed me a plain plastic bag filled with floppies. It was like meeting with a dealer.
