I was born in England. I once paid 70 POUNDS!! For a 256mb sd card. I didn't know what to do with all that space.

I remember paying $55 for a 256mb card in Sterling Electronics back in the day.
(I also remember playing on  a computer with 32kb (?) of storage where the bulk of the storage went on soft floppy disks).

Seems a lot like the travelocity mess up from tisha b'av. Maybe they will claim the code was for a specific purpose like a conference or like you said just people from japan etc... and be able to cancel and tickets, seems a lot easier to do because it wasn't a pricing mistake but a coupon misused...

Easily and with the same FFN.  Shame there were no mega offers back then!
Of course one day we'll look back to now as the golden era  :'(
